Snippet: Apple Blends Store and Main Site ☇
This is an interesting, but understandable change. Gone is the “Store” tab, and a site-wide shopping bag is now prominently featured. You can now place items in your bag directly from the information pages, rather than learning about the product, then being linked to the accompanying Apple Store page. I suspect this could be the end of WebObjects and further simplifies so many things about Apple’s site. In fact, it almost feels like a web version of the Apple Store iOS app, which really makes sense.
Snippets are posts that share a linked item with a bit of commentary.
