Still getting my head around the absolutely huge earnings numbers just revealed by Apple. MG Siegler’s recent post over at TechCrunch puts things into mind-blowing perspective: Apple’s profits alone exceeded Google’s entire revenue for the quarter. And Apple’s iTunes Store profit alone (which is almost a footnote to all the iOS activity) was bigger than all of Yahoo!‘s revenue. It’s stunning.
Heavy sigh.
Now that it’s clear Google wants to turn into Facebook and updated their privacy policy with no opt-out to match, perhaps they should update their mission statement to be more in line with their new, true purpose.
Wall Street Journal reports that Target doesn’t like shoppers visiting its stores, checking out the products in person and their price, and then leaving the store to order it from somewhere with a cheaper price, like, say, Amazon. Target wants suppliers to create special products that are only sold in stores and become more aggressive about price matching.
Hit the point where I am weary of screening comments on old posts, specifically ones that I wrote several years ago and are still being read for who knows what reason (guess it’s the Google).
