John Gruber on how Apple's design may improve without Jobs - On The Verge 002 teaser

2011-12-10
where is Apple now because I mean I think it's the question that everybody's asking you can't deny that Jobs was this huge driving force he wasn't just a Salesman he wasn't just a showman he was intimately involved in the creation of those products right the question I get from a lot of people is is is their design going to go to crap now or is it going to start slowly going to crap ah and I don't think that's going to be the problem for Apple not like an Amy like industrial design well across the board UI design industrial design is the package for the next iPhone not going to be as nice right I don't think you have to worry about any of those things I think I think that's the least up to me that's the thing i would imagine would be that would is least likely to happen because they have designers in replace and he wasn't even a designer really writing it was like a director of disease like it he was like a dream a dreamer right and is it his job was like basically to dream up stuff I mean really and if anything I actually think the design might even get better without him in so far is that there's no longer one guy him who when he's wrong can insist on having his way do you think we'll see you less or more stitch leather I think we'll see less message sighs I don't think you know my people laugh but I think that that's Steve Jobs
