Грубер и Сиглер в 4-м выпуске «Ток-шоу»
В предпоследнем выпуске «Ток-шоу» Грубера у него в гостях Эм-Джи Сиглер. Это адская смесь. Выпуск записывался до ВВДЦ, и они там обсуждали всякие слухи. Это любопытно.
Потом очень интересно про то, почему надо заботиться даже о мелких деталях, которых обычные люди не заметят. Грубер (48:46...):
Maybe people don’t buy Newsweek and think, my god this thing is very finely printed. You may not think it, but you notice it. And that’s just like the way Apple stuff is all the way. Where people don’t buy, well, normal people don’t buy the iPhone and think about how nice the seams are between the steel antenna and the glass in front. You may not think about it, but you appreciate it.
Но интереснее всего про Гугль, начиная с перехода Эпла на собственные карты и жалкого гуглевского эвента, который последний воткнул как раз перед ВВДЦ (56:54...) и заканчивая аналогией с Микрософтом (1:21:20...). Грубер:
Google is to me the new Microsoft, where they are the ones sticking their fingers in everybody else’s pies, and not making any friends, and spoiling the friends that they had... How far this industry can go in five years: when the iPhone was introduced there’s Eric Smidt invited up on stage backslapping with Steve Jobs talking about what great almost sibling companies Google and Apple are... And now look where they are. The way I see it is, Google’s really made enemies of everybody...
Сиглер:
And it’s one of those things like we were talking about earlier, where, you know, you talk to them, and they don’t seem to be aware of this. Even though it’s not like a big secret, and anyone can see it...
Грубер:
It does seem like they are oblivious about it, and that’s to me is a difference from when Microsoft was the enemy of everybody in the Walley, is that Microsoft seemed very self-aware of their role... But Google seems to think that they are still everybody’s friend and everybody else kind of hates them.
