""I'm not an AIR or .Net developer myself" != "don't understand the technology." Obviously, someone can have different levels of understanding; I think I have a high level understanding of the differences between the platforms but not a practitioner's knowledge of every single feature difference. If you wanted a developer's perspective on the announcement rather than a journalist's, well, there are lots of developer blogs out there."

Re: Microsoft’s Ray Ozzie: Apps don’t make your phone special - http://venturebeat.com/2009...
"Yeah, I noticed that -- my interpretation was more along the lines of, "If you get the CIO of the United States to speak at your conference, you don't get to dictate what phone he uses.""

Re: Ray Ozzie is wrong about smartphone apps - http://scobleizer.com/2009...
"Hey Matt, you probably brought a lot more technical nuance to your reading of Ozzie's comments than I did, so perhaps I didn't do them justice. That said, I suspect you're mixing your own perception with Ozzie's -- I mean, according to my notes he really did say, "I don't think there's going to be differentiation at the app level." Maybe I lost some nuance there, but I think my summary of his basic point is accurate."

"Good post, Robert. On the loss of nuance, I'll respond to Matt Mullenweg (who seems to take the most issue with my post) on your blog, but the short and boring answer is that I think my characterization is accurate."

"These questions would probably be better directed at Loic, who seems to be pretty reachable. I mean, I'm not an AIR or .Net developer myself, and I imagine Loic had to simplify his explanation a bit for me."

Re: As Midas List dies, AlwaysOn offers a new selection of top VCs - http://venturebeat.com/2009...
"Cool, thanks Matt. For what it's worth, I think that if you're making a top 100 list, you should go ahead and be presumptuous."

Re: Salesforce.com’s Marc Benioff: Don’t call Chatter a social network - http://digital.venturebeat.com/2009...
"I won't deny that Benioff sometimes seems like a blowhard, but to dismiss the company ignores the fact that the company's financial performance (which is, admittedly, dependent on CRM) seems pretty solid, especially given the economic context ..."
