My macbook screen was in the way :)<br><br>Let me clarify, though. I'm not dinging the product for releasing first (or even exclusively) on Windows/IE instead of OS X. Rather, I'm dinging it for being a desktop app at all. It's a networked app with a lightweight user interface. It begs to be a web service, not a shrink-wrapped turd.<br><br>Don't get me wrong; I know that plenty of software makers do fine selling software in huge, fenced-off binaries. But those apps are usually things that people a) really need and b) know that they really need. It seems to me that Live Ink's biggest barrier to entry is educating the consumer about their product. If the product isn't easy to try out or ubiquitous, I think they'll be restricted to the small K-12 education sales that they seem to be going after.enguyenMon, 21 May 2007 13:20:23 -0000http://mindtangle.net/2007/05/11/live-ink/#comment-3775915hey i love firefox as much as the next guy, the one sipping his latte and browsing design blogs on a macbook in this san francisco coffeeshop but let's face it, Windows/IE is what the world runs on. so to say that it won't see development because it is tied to that (for now) is kind of, uh, wishful thinking. hippie.aaronbSun, 20 May 2007 19:52:13 -0000
