When you have ClearChannel submitting 1700 apps for all of their completely identical Golden Oldies stations it is indeed spam. There are already several apps that aggregate streams. That is really the way to go.

Apps in the background may have their resources reclaimed, or be shut down, if foreground apps need the RAM. Also consider that many apps are using the same (system) libraries, which are only loaded once.

This is what happens when a PowerPoint presentation is your presentation. PowerPoint should be an aid to a presentation, not the whole shebang. You should be prepared to give a presentation even if the power goes out and you have to go by

See they are just covering their asses at this point. Besides, bugs are not random nor can one casually observe them to be little until more is known. Might be a huge problem that takes them weeks to solve.

This isn't "regrettable" it's simply par for the course from everybody's favorite tech company. The only thing they will regret is getting caught, much like any sociopath.

The point is NOT to sell the biggest number of phones, as individual units. The point is to make the most profit and a race to the bottom in a market already saturated with what amounts to 50 identical wannabe iPhone clones will not be v

I am not optimistic about the success of droid phone store solutions. Much money can be had by individuals coding for app stores on their own, and most individuals will not target both platforms (in my opinion) so they go where the money i

There is a cage match, and it is for developer mindshare. Google's java clone environment vs. Apple's Obj-c solution. This was the whole thrust of his article. Code for Android because pretty soon they will be dropping them from blimps fo

By the way, this is about the millionth blog post I have seen like this. They could be machine generated for all I know. "Android will take over because they sell more phones, therefore one should code for an Android app store and platform

The thing about articles like this is that the authors are not interested in a real analysis of the situation. It is just unvarnished cheerleading. "Android" is always going to sell more units than Apple's phones, because Android phones ar

SEO bums are not geeks, they are cancer. SEO is why Google and other search engines suck now. Remember to get your herbal V14gra, and to Digg this!

Don't you guys have any in-house programmers, or did you fire everybody once you launched your business? I only ask because this seems quite common these days.

I for one find your (former) ignorance of the widespread nature of gunplay in America strange. Were you raised in a bubble?
