E-Book nicht in iBookstore zugelassen, weil es Links zu Amazon enthält

Dumme Richtung von Apple, weil sie in erster Linie den eigenen Kunden schadet und zusätzlich noch ‚reguliert uns!‘ schreit.

Seth Godin:

I just found out that Apple is rejecting my new manifesto Stop Stealing Dreams and won’t carry it in their store because inside the manifesto are links to buy the books I mention in the bibliography.Quoting here from their note to me, rejecting the book: “Multiple links to Amazon store. IE page 35, David Weinberger link.”

(Allerdings: Würden die anderen Plattformprovider in der gleichen Situation anders handeln?)

„Diese Organisation ist prädigital.“

Seth Godin:

School is pre-digital. Elections. Most of what you do in your job. Even shopping. The vestiges of a reliance on geography, lack of information, poor interpersonal connections and group connection (all hallmarks of the pre-digital age) are everywhere.

Perhaps the most critical thing you can say of a typical institution: „That place is pre-digital.“

All a way of saying that this is just the beginning, the very beginning, of the transformation of our lives.
