Build and Analyze: Mythical Metro →
In today’s show: a bit on the Netflix/Qwickster split, then Windows 8 and Metro: how the desktop, iOS, Android, and Metro interfaces scale to accommodate more features over time, the shortcomings of gesture-based touch interfaces, Metro’s adoption challenges among customers and developers, and Microsoft’s possible return to their effective strategies from the 1990s.
(Also, on After Dark, we debate the Build and Analyze theme song.)
