While I recognize that the iPhone is a stretch (I said so), it came to mind because of how easy it is to transfer information from the iPhone. I see this as a significant improvement in phones, although I do see your point. And thank you for catching my LiveJournal statement. Looking back, the experience I had was with _EasyJournal_, not LiveJournal. The reason it wasn't standard was that half of this friend's old posts weren't included in her RSS feed. Made it a real pain, as you can imagine. But yeah, EasyJournal not LiveJournal. Corrected the post, thanks again. First off, thanks for the comment John.

Other than the <em>rendering</em> of open standards, there's nothing open about it. Without significant hacking, you can't install anything on it, there's virtual lock-in with the iTunes Store and the iPod-like DRM strategy. The only way I could agree with what you're saying is that you can get the information off your iPhone since it's got a similar OS X interface, uses many of the same programs, and if you go in through another computer, you could conceivably get the information off of it in an open format. Then again, that's a benefit of Mac OS X, not the iPhone. And please explain what a "standard interface" is, as WordPress apparently has on, while LiveJournal doesn't. <em>Because you're not familiar with it</em> doesn't make it non-standard.
