After yesterday’s announcement of an iPhone SDK, Chris Messina over at FactoryCity ponders the thought of “Did the web fail the iPhone”. Chris is one of the orignal organizers of the iPhoneDevCamp. The post is in respone of a twitter message pondering did people wast time and money working on the now 3rd parrty apps. Take a time to read the entire post to see how Chris justifised his closing statment.

“We could have done so much together. The web and the iPhone, that is. We could have made such sweet music. Especially when folks realize that Steve was right and developing for Safari is the future of application development, they?ll have wished that they had invested in and lobbied for richer and better tools and interfaces for what will inevitably become the future of rich internet application development and, no surprise, the future of the iPhone and all its kin”
