Some of my favorities include The Sun Dial (“Oh, what time you got?” “Ah Chip, it’s 3:15.” “3:15, just like that. That’s great.” “Oh, actually, it’s 5:30.”), The Germophobe (“so people can shake hands without actually touching”), and lastly, “the phone that shocked you every third ring.”
Gizmodo makes a good point. As humorous as this is, I don’t really see Microsoft’s point here. It is true, Apple’s App Store does contain tons of stupid and unnessary apps and their process of allowing (and dis-allowing) apps into the store is wacky. But, taken as a whole, the App Store has proven extremely successful. Paid apps are bringing in a lot of revenue and an open market gives well-known and lesser-known developers much opportunity to shine. This is a funny poke at Apple, sure. But what have you proven, Microsoft?
