Watson bids Sherlock farewell
Watson bids Sherlock farewell
09/25/2004 11:37 AMWhen Apple took the wraps off Jaguar in 2001, one of the features that
garnered the most amount of criticism was the new and improved
Sherlock, which Steve toted as "Internet services for the rest of
us." Sherlock 3 incorporated mini browsers into OS X, which
brought commonly-used, customizable information to a user’s
fingertips:
<I>Sherlock is dramatically better than standard Web browsers at
retrieving and displaying some of the most practical and useful
information available on the Internet, like stock news, general
headlines, movie previews, locations and show times, yellow pages
listings, eBay auction activity and much, much more. Sherlock displays
each of these 'channels' in its own arrangement of columns and
panes.</I>
The only problem was, it already existed.
Of course, arguments can be made for both sides, and a case can
certainly be made for a logical evolution of Sherlock, but the fact
remains that Watson and Sherlock 3 accomplish the same tasks with
similar interfaces. Over the last three years, Watson and Sherlock
have coexisted in the same space — like Google and Yahoo, or Vienna
Fingers and Oreo Uh-Ohs!, users were left to choose between brand
recognition, color, taste, size, shape and speed.
And as of next Tuesday, it'll be all gone. Watson support will be
dropped (and it looks like its buyer, Sun, won't be releasing its own
port anytime soon). Its tools will be left to fester and whither while
Sherlock quietly rests on the top of the heap.
It seems that Apple has won and can now focus on its upcoming fight
with the Konfabulator crew. Perhaps things could’ve been different if
Apple had approached Watson’s creator Dan Wood and offered him some
compensation — or a job.
For many of you, Oct. 5 will come and go without a second glance.
Sherlock will still be there when you’re looking for a bite to eat or
are in the mood for a late-night movie. For the rest of us, who have
seen the dust accumulate on Sherlock since it stopped searching our
hard drive, the decline and demise of Watson will be a fond memory
that will always hold place in our computing history, marking one of
the few who refused to back down in the face of a corporate shadow,
and showed third-party developers everywhere that just because someone
else can do it, doesn't mean they can do it better.
On behalf of Watson users everywhere, Mr. Wood, we await your next
creation.
