Betting on the Web

Another "must read" series of articles especially the article linked in Zeldman's first sentence. 

The topic of discussion is focused on Apple and Google's commitment to building web standards devices instead of just another device or application as the folks at Adobe or Microsoft do. Where else can we see this dichotomy at play? Hint: it's easy to see by comparing software managing email campaigns.

This isn't just an argument about who is coding the correct way. It's a bet on how people will work in an Internet immersed culture. As was seen during the 90s conventional business doesn't always get it no matter how hard they try.
