A.
Tablet = not a pc = for services and content.
VS In the past, mobile carriers held the hegemony. (picked the carrier first, then picked the phone.)
After Apple,
the carrier now changes depending on who manufactured the device.
As tablets advance, the categories blend and compete with each other.
Apple — personal life and devices.
ms — software kingdom — sponsoring the workplace.
Google — search and find. Through the usefulness of our services, drawing in as many people as possible.
B.
Facebook — different from existing social services = NOT obsessed with making money X
VS MySpace :: sold to media; chasing ad revenue based on user clicks
-> intrudes on the user interface.
Facebook = people (aggregating small actions of people to give them meaning)
VS Google = robots (engineering culture, mechanical metrics)
C.
Mobile (iPhone), social
= touch, eyes (camera), Iron Man (long-distance connected conversation) + my location, = avatar.
=> + functions that transcend existing senses. + giving humans senses they did not have before.
Internet culture (organization, productivity, documentation) => with people (consumers), not documents, at the center.
I can do far more things now. !!!

Andy Rubin
Software should be easy for anyone to use widely and share. — open source — open source project — Android.
VS Originally, software was not a product. MS turned software into a product — locked it up as IP.\
JUMO
Helped make Obama president, then traveled the world. JUMO was founded. An NGO was founded.
Connects what each country lacks with what others have in surplus.
