Yeah. Twitter needs to be more transparent on how they give those out. There's allegations that they require spending thousands on advertising unless you're a pop culture icon like a Kardashian or something. And what's the po

I agree. Monetization is their goal. It needs to happen to appease investors and the like. We'll have to see how much stink people put up when Twitter compromises on either 2 or 3 here.

Yeah. There have been a few instances of this already. Not just trolls, but journalists, people discussing politics, etc. I feel like Twitter trying to bend over to appease the people who want to combat unpleasantness online will have more

It's pretty cool to see work being done to get Android working better in a desktop environment. I applaud the progress. But I don't really have a need for this. I love my Chromebook and ChromeOS too much and it feels like they fil

This is a good point, but T-Mobile's not exactly in a monopolistic position. Honestly, their music thing doesn't bother me too much. They included nearly every major service. It doesn't seem like they're playing favorite

The worst part is that it starts the service and connects to China without your consent or making you aware of it. At least I can turn off Google sync without any issues.

Very happy about this. Was thinking of picking up a Kinect when the original hackers made a USB driver and started an SDK. Decided to wait and I'm so glad Microsoft is actually pushing it like this. Would love to see it all tied in to Vi

Wouldn't be too terribly difficult. I'd make one and keep it simple. Was thinking of doing it on Android possibly.

As far as I can tell, Apple's new guidelines wouldn't let them put that app in the App Store anymore. Apple's guidelines say you have to sell through the app using their API and can't sell anywhere else. And you can't link to a place wher

When I first found Tumblr, I didn't really get it. I wondered why I'd use the service when other services like WordPress are out there. Then I saw the quick, small side of it and wondered why I'd replace Twitter with it. But there is a g

Zelda is one of my all time favorites. I love the series so much. Can't wait for the new game. Seeing this, though, makes me want to make an adventure game. Hmm....

Sad, but many people saw this coming when Apple announced the new terms. It's just another step for Apple being more restrictive. What's next?

Started with making text adventure games on my TI-83 calc back in freshman year of HS. I was curious as to how games worked and wanted to make my own. After that, I took a programming class (the first one my HS offered) in Java. It was fu

Awesome. Thought about picking up a Kinect when the indie created SDK was coming out, but the official one should be awesome. Can't wait - even if my 360 is red ringed...

Yeah, but I don't want to have to be moved to the YouTube app. I want to know if I can use the built in browser to watch HTML5 videos. I know I can do it on YouTube with my PC browser if I enable it on my YT account...

This is great news. I really hope he gets a very good defense.

Will the browser have full HTML5 support? Can I go to YouTube in it and watch videos without flash? I admittedly don't know much about the Android 3.0 browser.

75,000 applications a week? Guess I shouldn't be surprised with how big of a company Google is, but still crazy to see that number.

Something like this is huge if we're ever going to move towards a cloud based OS in the future. I can see why Google would push it so hard. Will be intereting to see how well it does and how much it's adapted.

I agree with you, but the N1 is starting to feel a little dated. It still runs great, but in a few more months, it will be at best a low-mid range phone. I want a Tegra 2 device really badly. I've been tempted to get the Atrix, but I want

What the hell was that? I'm sorry for the bluntness of my statement, but that "article" was crap.

Interesting. Never really thought about this. I have multiple Google accounts, but never really sign in with both on any device besides my Android phone.

Wow. 405 and still no down arrow? I'm only a little over 100 and was wondering what the threshhold was...

I like my iPad a lot, too. And I have a feeling I'd use a Xoom more than my iPad. But it's more a novelty thing. You can't be extremely productive on it like you can on a cheap netbook. I'm not saying they don't have a market, but it loo

I think people are making too big of a deal out of all these tablets coming out. Android 3.0 looks like a great OS and I'd love to have a device that runs it, but I don't think they're as useful as people believe them to be. The main reaso

Absolutely a good sign. Hope it puts things in their favor. There have already been too many deaths.

That would be good, but then again - Apple was supposed to launch the White iPhone 4 a long time ago, too...

Awesome. So glad I found this. Not some interesting topics on there that I hadn't seen before.
