Put a string in the app that controls the title, subtitle, or other highly noticeable aspect of the app. Do a few bug fixes as well. submit your app to Apple. Wait a few weeks for enough users to download it, toggle the switch, and put in

I tend to agree. There is already a massive affiliate marketing industry around http://fiverr.com where for $5 you can get a pretty amazing amount of high quality work done. Everyone is a specialist in their field. $5 Wordpress

Do you think it possible to make smartphones into body temperature thermometers? I currently have an iOS app that measures heart rate with the light/flash while you put your finger over the camera. The camera measures your pulse by rea

I know very little about BTC. I have a few grand and would like to but some at around 100.00 each in hopes of doubling and cashing out. Is there a good step by step for beginners? I'm not worried about secrecy and track ability, more ease o

I don't think you are paranoid. They went from a "mistake" in issuing a "testing" certificate that managed to propagate through their system that just "happened" to be sitting around and configured in a way to be ready to execute a MITM con

Why are there intermediary CA's? They seem to hold the same power as a CA but little of the responsibility. It would be similar to allowing a secondary DNS provider to hold primary powers. I could start big-huge-secondary-dns-provider.ex

Thank you. I tried that but mine had no triangles. I closed and reopened the app and then they showed up. I must have hit a quick UI glitch or something, but a relaunch solved it. Thanks again.

Does anyone know how to remove turntrust as a CA in Mac OS X? Or better, disable them? If I go to their website I can click on the little lock which shows they are valid. I look in the keychain, and I see three listings for TURKTRUST and i

Why does this happen? It seems technically solvable. If you want a cert, you have to prove you own that domain. No amount if faxing or email is going to truly prove that. And Chrome hasn't asked me to update, am I safe or do these updates h

Why do we need an actual hardware device to get to this data? Don't iPhones and Androids and others have all the internals needed to get the same data, and more, such as altitude, so you can check the incline you are against etc.

When people in tech say "paged" do they/you literally mean it? Or do you just mean text message but the terminology has stuck as a throwback to the days when pagers were how people were on emergency call. I suspect there still is a small pa

I agree. I change it to say "Sent from a mobile device". There are cases where a message mandates a reply but a mobile device isn't to an ideal platform. iPhone only recently allowed file attachments beyond 1, and that was if you remembered

I think he missed the point about FaceTime. Not /that/ many 10th graders have iPhones. 110.00 a month is too much, so the push the limits of their iPods. We don't need a new app so kids can do video chat, there's Skype and others for that.

Interesting. I will have to do another restore and see what in the heck it was. Maybe I was being asked to import settings/bookmarks. One thing can do — a cheap trick that takes an extra step I feel we shouldn't have to take — make a Java

In my opinion, the best argument that there is no need for a data cap is to look at usenet providers. They provide some if the fastest connections I've ever seen, for dirt cheap prices, throwing in VPN and cloud storage type services, alway

Why can't we go back to the days of modems. It seems to be the only potentially accessible set of wires that any company can hook into without permission, regulation, permits, etc. Most homes have at least 2 pair wiring, most modern homes h

Yep, my bad, I didn't notice you were sucking the site up and hosting it yourself, I thought you found a crafty way to service dropbox through the OS over the users local port. My mistake. Great idea and good luck.

I give site44 a few weeks before they have to stop. DropBox, unless they have changed in the last ~6 months, won't let you do this. I'm not sure if it's in their TOS anymore since they went through the whole TOS fiasco a while back, but I'v

I don't know enough about markets to find the answer to this. Does Syris have a "stock market" or some form of electronic exchange? I would imagine if they have money they do. Did those routes stay up? If not, what are the repercussions of
