Apple began to encourage employees to work on personal projects

It is widely known that in Google an employee can spend 20% of his working time on development from Google Labs.

Something like that, only in a more severe version, began to be applied in Apple. As part of the company's modernization business policy pursued by Tim Cook, the Blue Sky program was launched, the number of participants in which is limited, but which is allowed to do what they like.

The work of such an initiative group is several weeks a year, but even such an initiative really looks more liberal than the policy under Steve Jobs, when the teams strictly did what the leadership ordered them to.

The Blue Sky project is one part of Apple’s increased openness. So, Tim Cook is behind the company's help from the victims of Hurricane Sendy and the recent settlement of a patent dispute with HTC.
