Security is the next important thing in software development
Recently, I have a chat with my friend and we discussing what is the next important for software, and what make a software tick.
Because of all the open software effort, having basic functionalities probably will not make your software application become a hit. There are several things that is important for the next most important software application, and they are...
-- Quality
-- Security
-- Innoviation
-- Design
From our opinion, MS is trying to capture market on all four areas. Apple is going for design and innovaition. Google is going for innvoiation, MS is going for security and quality. So far, both company get their reward by advancing in their area. Apple have ipod, iphone. Google have search, and MS have window update and office update.
We believe that for the next decade, which company can rule all four area will be the king in the next internet era.
