I like the idea of surprising and delighting your users. My software helps make animated gifs, and is going to be free. I'm going to mail stickers to people who mention/tag us when they post on Tubmlr/twitter. I also have a m

I got your ebook when it first came out at $1.99. I'm going to mail out stickers for my next project. (Can I has free book? Why do we have to wait till October, so far away.)

If you really want to piss Snapchat off, turn this into a client that anyone can run.

I haven't seen his work, but I suppose we should clarify the distinction between infographic and data visualization.

Coders don't make infographics. Graphic designers and marketers do. Infographics are highly customized to their topics and you pretty much need to be an illustrator to make a good one. I'm confused about how an infographic made th

Weird feature, but I suppose its a better alternative than simply locking out the user. Still, any kid would simply lie about their age on the registration form.

Gravy train...cute :) Making money off the app store is hard. Like others have said, don't quit unless you're capable of sustaining yourself for a period of time. As for the job market, I assume its good, just look up craigslist o

Thanks, I enjoyed the post, and I think it reaffirms the idea of controlling your own destiny. People seem to be missing the point just because they can't see past the post title. You can be whatever you choose to be and you don't

No, just personal experience. Nobody I know uses G+ as a social network, and I also learned a bit about the social gaming audience when I interned at a social gaming analytics company.

Google Games failed because Google+ is really just not that popular.

Those landing pages are crap and kind of annoy me. They're just stuffed with a useless text template, no doubt for SEO purposes. I don't like how the covers are all the same. Each page is the same as the other, just paste the coun

I'm Canadian, but I'm used to seeing/paying USD prices online. I get slightly uncomfortable when dealing with Euros or GBP, because it feels like the service or product isn't targeted towards me (as if somehow I won't be supported or someth

I learned iOS/Objective-C as my first programming language. I've tinkered around with Android but haven't shipped much. I would recommend iOS. You get the interface builder/storyboards which should help you prototype.

Looks to be more of a viral video ad, but still pretty cool.

I got stuck on the crime question, and cheated. They're pretty difficult riddles! It wasn't immediately clear a hint would appear (after my first 6 answers). Now I'm stuck in the door. Its interesting and somewhat fun, but I'm not sure I ha

Maybe a more relevant question: How many times in the last few years did you reference one of your books? Unless you're keeping them for nostalgia/sentimental value.

Freelance designers get paid to design, so money talks. What would you be surveying them about?

Wait, so your girlfriend started this because of you?

Not much depth to this piece, seems like an unusual amount of links to his other articles...is this some sort of SEO test bait?

Can you elaborate? Are you saying that the statement is just fashionable because everything tends to get better? Or do you believe there are better photo sharing experiences? Thanks

Hmm, technically there's nothing in there that helps you find a co-founder, just stuff that might make you look more attractive once you have.

Myspace's photo experience was terrible.

Technically, the bigger threat is download bots who can drive rankings up. I really don't think ratings count for much anymore.

Still ridiculously good for an indie. Any suggestions on how to find profitable niches?
