Apple makes history not by leapfrogging everyone in terms of functionality and bells and whistles, they do it through elegance, simplification, clarity, and practicality.<\/em><\/p>\nI see no reason why they won\u2019t follow that strategy with their phone. It will change the game, but not because it does more than everyone else\u2019s phone. I think we\u2019ll see just the opposite.<\/em><\/p>\nApple will execute on the basics beautifully. Just like they did with the original Mac. Just like they did with the iMac. Just like they did with the iPod.<\/em><\/p>\nThe mobile phone world is littered with crap. The interfaces are tragic. The materials are cheap. The build quality is marginal. And of course the sound sucks.<\/em><\/p>\nThese are the things people complain about. They don\u2019t complain that they can\u2019t video conference with their friends. They don\u2019t complain that they don\u2019t have advanced voice recognition. They don\u2019t complain that their phone doesn\u2019t open an Excel spreadsheet and sync with Quickbooks. They complain because the sound sucks, the interface is miserable, and the phone is falling apart.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\nApple can change this because that\u2019s what Apple does. They can look at the crisis points of a typical experience and erase them one by one. Not by adding a lot of new things things, but by removing the crap and paying attention to the basics.<\/em><\/p>\nThe basics are the secrets of business. Execute on the basics beautifully and you\u2019ll have a lot of customers knocking at your door. Cool wears off, usefulness never does.<\/em><\/p>\nMost people just want things that work well and, unfortunately, the mobile phone business is littered with things that don\u2019t work. That\u2019s Apple\u2019s opportunity. Build something small, light, beautiful, and useful that works and they\u2019ll win.<\/em><\/p>\nThat\u2019s not to say it won\u2019t have the usual twists and surprises that we\u2019ve come to expect from Apple, but they\u2019ll be modest in implementation and bold in impact. And, like the iPod, it will play especially nice with Macs to start.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
There is yet another piece of related sayings :-<\/p>\n
If you want to change big things, you pay attention to small things.” -Rudy Giuliani on C-span talking about the Broken Windows theory The Broken Windows theory was the catalyst for solving NYC\u2019s crime wave in the 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s. NYC\u2019s administration had been focusing on major crimes, like murder, and overlooking smaller crimes along the way. But it wasn\u2019t working. So the city started going after petty crime that it had been overlooking: turnstyle jumpers, squeegee men, public drunks, etc. The result: All crime rates fell suddenly and continued to drop for the next ten years. Giuliani says, \u201cThe idea of it is that you had to pay attention to small things, otherwise they would get out of control and become much worse.\u201d In a lot of our approach to crime, quality of life, social programs, we were allowing small things to get worse rather than dealing with them at the earliest possible stage\u2026So we started paying attention to the things that were being ignored. Aggressive panhandling, the squeegee operators that would come up to your car and wash the window of your car whether you wanted it or not \u2014 and sometimes smashed people\u2019s cars or tires or windows \u2014 the street-level drug-dealing; the prostitution; the graffiti, all these things that were deteriorating the city. So we said, \u201cWe\u2019re going to pay attention to that,\u201d and it worked. It worked because we not only got a big reduction in that, and an improvement in the quality of life, but massive reductions in homicide, and New York City turned from the crime capital of America to the safest large city in the country for five, six years in a row. Building momentum One key component of Broken Windows is that it shows progress. It\u2019s not about miracles or heroic solutions or solving massive problems overnight. It\u2019s about building momentum. It\u2019s showing your audience that you\u2019re headed in the right direction. It\u2019s making visible changes, even slight ones, that show you\u2019re doing something. Someone is on the case. People know that you haven\u2019t abandoned them. You\u2019re giving them a reason to trust you. You\u2019re building faith.Broken Windows and the web This concept applies to all kinds of areas, not just fighting crime. In fact, others have already pointed out connections between Broken Windows and web development: In Software Entropy, the Pragmatic Programmers talk about entropy, broken windows, and computing neighborhoods. Don\u2019t leave \u201cbroken windows\u201d (bad designs, wrong decisions, or poor code) unrepaired. Fix each one as soon as it is discovered. If there is insufficient time to fix it properly, then board it up. Perhaps you can comment out the offending code, or display a \u201cNot Implemented\u201d message, or substitute dummy data instead. Take some action to prevent further damage and to show that you\u2019re on top of the situation. And Broken Windows Theory and Your Web Site says visiting a site with broken links, misleading navigation, or missing images is like visiting a neighborhood where \u201cyou get the feeling that no one cares.\u201d If you\u2019re trying to create a community around your web site, I think you really have to consider this theory because it prompts you look at the value of the small and seemingly inconsequential problems on your site. By considering the ways that small problems can multiply a feeling of apathy, you may find that your time is better-spent fixing broken windows as opposed to building new houses. Solving \u201cstreet-level\u201d problems at your site It seems counterintuitive to focus on little problems instead of big ones. But cracking down on your version of squeegee men, graffiti, etc. could yield surprising results. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I found this in the Signals Vs Noise blog and am posting the excerpts here.
