What do you make of Google buying Motorola Mobility?
-
Genius! It's a great way for Google to get into the hardware biz.
- Oh man, Larry page just blew 12.5 billion! Just because you do software and hardware, that doesn't make you an Apple.
- I don't care, /me hugs my iPhone.
- Blah, blah blah, landlines still rock.
- It is a very good time to be a patent lawyer.
- Darn it, and to think I turned down an opportunity to buy Motorola last week for only 10 billion!

About us... |
The Joy of Tech is a comic about technology and pop culture, created by Nitrozac and Snaggy, and updated three times a week. We like to feature the people and events that are making today's tech news.
We've been making comics on the web since early 1999, and The Joy of Tech just celebrated its 10th anniversary. We're very proud to be featured regularly on places like AllThingsD (from the people who publish The Wall Street Journal), Bloomberg Businessweek, Macworld UK magazine, Folha in Brazil, and others, both on the web and in print.
We currently live on Vancouver Island, Canada, where we have a lovely perspective of the silicon valleys to the south. We make The Joy of Tech using Apple computers, mostly on our MacBook Pros, running Mac OS X Snow Leopard. We use software from Apple, Adobe, BBedit, OpenOffice.org, and others, including Microsoft (yep, we do use Microsoft Office for Mac on occasion). Nitrozac uses a Wacom tablet to draw her illustrations.
