Frustrated Windows 8 Developer Gets His App in the Store
- jrharmon 14y agoI'm the developer who wrote the long blog post about the issues with submitting to the Windows Store. My app then finally got listed after the post hit slashot, reddit and here. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4701603 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4701603 Now that it is in the store, it's already over 5,000 downloads, so things are definitely looking better than before the post. As I mentioned, despite the initial troubles, which should be easy for them to fix eventually, it still looks like the Windows store is a great opportunity for developers, due to how little competition there is, vs the size of the market that is rising quickly.

- jrharmon 14y agoThat's the first time I had heard that as the reference. Most people think it is from Aperture Science from Portal. I actually used to have a camera icon (with a big lens in the middle) as the 'O' of Memorylage, but then replaced it with just the aperture of the camera, to make it cleaner. That symbol is actually pretty common in photography apps.
