Well, you're right, it's not the best example: one steals money from the user, the other doesn't. But why would anybody make an app called "<popular app> Fan App" if it's not to take advantage of its fame, confuse users and make qui

Just nitpicking here, but I noticed that a new HTTP request is done when hovering the links in order to download a different background, and that is not a good idea, because it will always flicker. Use one image with two states and modify t

What's wrong with the Roboto font? I am seeing this using Chrome 15 and Windows XP: http://i.imgur.com/BYq1J.png In Firefox it improves, but it's still weird: http://i.imgur.com/c606f.png
