Lame. The language is almost trivial; what matters are the frameworks that go with it. Those were created at NeXT, and Steve Jobs was a big reason that happened. Those frameworks (with all the updates that have been made over the years) are what run on Mac OS X and iOS today. |

Again, it's the execution! There are certainly better languages out there. However, Apple manages the Objective-C "ecosystem" in much the same way that it manages the iTunes "ecosystem" -- with a relatively high level of quality and usability. (Yes, programmers bitch about stuff in iOS, but we always do in any language/ecosystem. What matters is how wisely the maintainers respond.)
