The prevalent thought in the tech press right now is that Apple
has lost its innovative edge and that Google has gained one.
People point to the excitement around Google's computerized
glasses, self-driving cars, and new laptop, the Chrome Pixel.
Meanwhile, they look at Apple and note that it hasn't invented a
new product category since 2010, when it launched the iPad.
Daring Fireball's John Gruber has had enough of it. He says the
only people getting excited about Google's innovations are
"nerds" – while normal people still love Apple.  Plus, says
Gruber, Apple is actually shipping its products.
