What do you use for spam filtering? Another problem is you will have to use a third party smtp server, otherwise your mail will be rejected by a lot of email providers.

Agreed. Setting up the mail server is such a nightmare. I'll gladly pay for a for-dummy-solution.

Pricing is indeed a hard problem. Given the competitive nature of App Store, you can't raise price on your own. People have been used to cheap apps. One solution is paid update.

Well, it should query more from Google. I often find it is almost identical from Bing, with poor results. That's the major problem. A minor one is it is very slow but I can live with that.

Have been using DuckDuckGo for the last few days (because of the PRISM incident). I feel it just redirects the query to Bing and then displays the result. Can't take it seriously.

The problem with top list is it rarely changes. Day after day, you are seeing the same and expecting the same. What's the point?

Trial mode is the most important. Everything else is secondary. I don't care if you get rid of top list or not, because not every app can enter top list nor be selected by apple's god hand.

I find all this public key and private key concept is confusing to general people. A private key is an actual key that you can use to unlock an encrypted message. A public key is actually a lock that you gave someone so that he can use to

The problem of HTTPS is that you will need certification from some CAs which may be working with government agents.

Using ifs is definitely more readable than &&, words always win. However carefully alignment of && and ( can make things better. Note that the comment after "if" is necessary to keep the shape balanced. if( /* b is sam

I was excited (tired of Eclipse), but after a test run, I think it is still slow, and still lack of native code debugging that just works, as in xcode.

I used Inconsolata and thought I would never switch again. Now I am finding myself using Ubuntu Mono. It's not that Inconsolata is bad or something, I guess you will get bored anyhow after one or two years.

As a developer, I also prefer to have test drive option. Some apps can't be test drive (for example, casual games), but for productivity apps, it is a must have feature and windows phone has it from day 1.

This is neither a feature nor a bug. It's a restriction forced by Apple.
