Apple has spoken out about the changes it has made to MobileMe since its rocky (to put it politely) launch. I don’t know why this wasn’t posted in the largely useless MobileMe News page but I can’t complain. Something tells me this bit of text was written by Steve Jobs himself. 

Apple is always working to improve MobileMe. Since MobileMe is primarily a server-side, or “cloud”-based, service, the MobileMe team can make improvements and push updates to MobileMe without any action being required of MobileMe customers. Since server-side updates are a bit more innocuous than a standard software update to Mac OS X or Microsoft Windows, it’s easy not to notice that updates are occurring. Usually the only hint of these updates is that things just “work better”.

The article then lists out a whole bunch of changes, including nitty-gritty details like “provides a “loading” graphic to indicate that messages are still being loaded instead of a blank page”.

A lot of attention has been given to localisation of the service. A lot of users were complaining about calendar dates being inconsistent across the service and during the last two weeks I have noticed that this problem has been solved.
