I was just reading
this article about a new startup company called
Framer. They apparently provide a rapid prototyping design tool for mobile presence. It's new, it's hot, and no doubt relevant if you're into that kind of thing, but what caught my eye was this short quote:
Bok is niet bang voor de concurrentie, de meesten proberen volgens hem vooral 'een betere versie van Photoshop te maken'. Het bedrijf achter dat programma, Adobe, is vooral interessant om te volgen omdat het 'de grote verliezer is van dit moment', aldus Bok.
Which translates to something like:
Bok isn't afraid of competition, according to him most of them are primarily trying to create a better version of photoshop. The company behind that software, Adobe, is particularly interesting to follow because they are currently the big loser, according to Bok.
Now, please note, this is not some kind of Photoshop or Adobe bashing from either me or him. Personally i have yet to see any foundation of what might be considered a future version of a better photoshop, but this caught my eye because with the kind of funding these guys secured and their background, they shouldn't be making calous remarks, and the fact that i have no idea what is happening at the actual perimeters of cutting edge dev, there may or may not be something significant in this quote.
