Yes, and I think it's true of many platforms. It's best to be there in the beginning, before the flood haha. Look at Youtube, it was much easier to become a Youtube celebrity (or just garner MANY views) if you were on there since/near the b

I think it's not 1.20 for a paid install. Buying users can cost quite a bit more for paid apps (for instance I know from googling that Flurry's 'buy user' service doesn't work very well for paid apps). But in the end, it's just a mad rush t

Yeah, I've heard it's really tough for freemium games now, because to get into the charts (to get organics) you have to compete with the ridiculous spending of the companies that are already there. We were featured by Apple with our paid ga

I wonder if it'll affect the 'look' of the image too (when you put all of these things together). I've never been a fan of the way digital looked (curse you Bayer filter!!), except for maybe the Foveon sensor now. I've actually been having

I'm still trying to wrap my head around how this works, I guess. If I am viewing a JPEG that is only 8 bit color (per channel), how does a 10 bit monitor make that any better without having a 10 bits per channel image source? Or what if I'm

Can anyone explain how 10 bit color would work for a monitor? Would we even notice it since most image formats are 8-bits-per-channel... and what does the OS do? Is the monitor able to more accurately show the difference between the sun vs

I always wonder if in the future, no one will really need to work, because AI/robots will be able to just do everything. Even make and program themselves I guess. But does that mean we all just take up art and poetry all day? Or augment our

I enjoyed this read especially! I am one of the creators of 'Stratosphere Multiplayer Defense' (on iPad), and we did it entirely in UIKit. It was very interesting to see what we could get away with, since Apple's OS is very animation-friend
