What I find interesting is something that has come up for me recently
when comparing Acrobat.com to GoogleApps.

I LOVE (can't understate this) Acrobat.com, especially buzzword for
document editing (text/Word processing). But I still live in Google
Apps. Why? b/c 'everyone' already has a google account and it is
soooo much easier to keep people there than to transition them to a
new service. It is sorta like the problem I'm having getting people
to transition to Plurk from Twitter. ;-)

The reason I bring this up is that there are FEW services listed in
all these applications that in some way shape or form do not gain
value when people are sharing the same service. Of course it doesn't
matter if people use Picasa or Flickr individually, but the fact that
I can track friends in one place makes a HUGE difference, no? So
"MobileMe" means very little to me so far no matter how "cool" it
is. I'll still do photos on Flickr and I'll still do docs on Google
Docs/Apps. And both orgs will do a ton of custom apps to make their
APIs work well on an iPhone in very little time, no?
