The old controls fitted so well with the rest of the Verge aesthetically. This player looks like a glossy ripoff of the Verge aesthetic. All of the phone reviewers used to complain about Sense 3.5, this looks perfectly at home on it. Urgh.
And yes, the old player, apart from fullscreen, was incredibly reliable, something that flash has never achieved.

When I think of “big bets,” I think of throwing your company behind something. Google’s side projects aren’t big bets, because Google doesn’t financially suffer a lot if they fail. Their cash cow is always able to cough up the cash to fund these things, so I really can’t see them being a big risk.

I guess the largest problem of Wikipedia being non-profit is that they have a relatively lean amount of servers, which makes loading history pages a tad slow, and using the comparison tool for history pages excruciatingly slow, at least for me.

Agreed. Those icons in the ribbon look like Windows XP icons spruced up a bit in Vista.
Also, skeumorphism in OS X is bloody stupid. They killed it with Leopard only to make it return in Lion?

Cool. They set a high bar with the iPhone 4, hope they don’t disappoint with a new design.
Plus, why wouldn’t Steve Jobs want to work on the next design?
