So Jason Fried at Basecamp has been trying to launch hey.com, his revolutionary approach to email.
He’s just come up against Apple and as a result, has been writing online about why the relationship between business owners and the app platfoms is broken.
To me this is pointing at a systemic failure, our inability to recognise the need for change when a business relationship becomes completely asymetric and goes toxic.
Jason and his partner in crime David have shaken up the world of work before, so I’m hoping this collision of conflicting interests could be the start of a new way of building realtionships with Californian tech giants.
Have put a few thoughts on my personal blog: https://donkeyontheedge.com/Jason-on-the-fairness-of-the-deal/
