All I want for WWDC…

Dear Steve,
For WWDC I would like:
1. A New, Improved .Mac
Please don’t give me a .Mac from Google. They don’t know how to make nice interfaces (just look at Gmail. Why doesn’t Jeffrey Veen fix it?). It’s okay if you give me a .Mac built on a Google infrastructure. That would be okay, as I know you’ve had problems. I would feel sorry for Amazon though, if Google opened their platform for other companies to use. Also, you don’t need to fix Backup, Time Machine is much more sensible idea.

2. A Cross Platform Cocoa.
I would like to port my Cocoa apps to Windows. I know you do too. (Or maybe you have already. How did CoverFlow get to Windows? Will the iPhone sync with IE/Firefox on Windows, or will it sync with Safari on Windows?). You can be very altruistic (mainly because you know what’s best for people, not because you want what’s best for them), so I know you won’t mind just a few more Mac apps being available for windows, just a few more glasses of ice water. Please make sure this works with my new .Mac too, so I can sync everything.

Google may soon have a monopoly on the world’s data, but wouldn’t it be fun if Apple had the monopoly on the world’s interfaces?
