"Hey, I got an idea: let's all sing this song: it goes..."

It was sort of funny to me how this video and Steve Jobs had essentially the same message and points - everybody makes mistakes, if you dont want an iphone 4 bring it back. Hmm. For the record i think it was a pretty good conference on the issue

Are you posting this to get people to ignore this topic or in support of the article? I thought the conference was fine. I was shocked they played that snooty stuck up video.

Well, I can understand how one might find Jonathan Mann to be snooty & stuck-up. I don't know much about him, but it appears he has already led an extraordinary life. I thought his song was amusing.

The article wasn't about him or his song, though, and I don't think he is employed by, or represents Apple. Apparently they thought it was amusing too.

I only linked to it because there is deep wisdom in the chorus that could have saved Farhad Manjoo a lot of typing.
