<blockquote cite="http://joehewitt.com/post/on-middle-men/"><p>We're at a critical juncture in the evolution of software. The web is still here and it is still strong. Anyone can still put any information or applications on a web server without asking for permission, and anyone in the world can still access it just by typing a URL. I don't think I appreciated how important that is until recently. Nobody designs new systems like that anymore, or at least few of them succeed. What an incredible stroke of luck the web was, and what a shame it would be to let that freedom slip away.</p></blockquote> <p class="cite">&mdash; <a href="http://joehewitt.com/post/on-middle-men/">Joe Hewitt</a></p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/gatekeepers">gatekeepers</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/iphone">iphone</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/joe-hewitt">joe-hewitt</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/mobile">mobile</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/sharecropping">sharecropping</a></p>
