Today, Apple had an event where it announced some things. Little things. First and foremost, Tim Cook started by talking about Apple’s dedication to privacy, and not-so-gently hinted at his disappointment in the government’s requests (and responses) for Apple’s assistance. The topic then shifted to both the environment, and the inroads with HealthKit that are truly making a difference …

For all the fun that happens at our clients offices, there’s a fair share of boring too. Sure, we love hearing about the fun stuff. But, we can’t, and shouldn’t, overlook the boring.
