Well put. The App Store is a lottery, but only if you treat it like one. It's a lottery if you just throw an un-polished app into the mess and hope Apple picks it out of the bunch like a BINGO ball for their "Featured" categories. That's ho

I'm on the exact same page. I'm going to give it a week. If I don't see a response from DropBox, because price is a factor, I'm just going to switch. I know it seems harsh, but the reality is, we're talking about more than just drive spac

Key words: I lost a job, that's all. He got paid for what he owned of OMGPOP, he didn't opt out of that. Title is deceiving. This is a post about someone who opted out of a job offer because of a personal project he felt more passionate

Holy God this is messed up and I hope it isn't real. If it is real... Dear Google - An unknown employee communicating through a random forum is NOT the right way to tell developers why they are not getting PAID!!!! EDIT: To the op of this p

As a consumer and Jim Gaffigan fan, all I'm thinking is this is great. $5 and I get his next album and he gets all the loot - except for the small amount he's donating. I'm not sure what you are saying my hidden reason as a consumer is for

He just says, here is a list, think about it. Which we did, so, mission accomplished IMO ;) All I can think is, if I had the rights to, and assets form a great old game that many loved, I'd be working my butt off right now to rescript it f

All I could think the whole time I read this was: What a MIRACLE it would be if I woke up one morning, opened my Android Developer Console and saw an option to disable comments on my apps. Permanently.

My to-do list is a brain dump typically. I then have an area at the top of my todo list for stuff that has to get done - like jobs for clients or server maintenance, etc. I also use a Notepad window on my desktop that I don't save that lis

Why? If it does happen where everything is based on an IP, the web, ecommerce, all of it, will die. You can't advertise a business as an IP address. In a couple days millions won't be able to find any websites anywhere. Ad revenue will be

I came here to post something very similar. "I do not want to sell this company" .... for less than a billion dollars :) She should have kept bolding. I think there's always room for competition, even in startup blogging. Being so saturat

I tried to take the screenshot, but when it's doing the blurry-loading thing it doesn't let me take the screen shot, and when it does take it, it's right after the page loads. So I guess it's "freezing" while it's trying to adjust the page

These are surely the feature sets of many successful games, but they didn't all start with hundreds of achievements, hundreds of levels, and so on. The most successful games started with an original idea. People like the game, so they keep

Google has done the research for you here, and placing the official site link above the sponsored links may seem like an interesting idea, but it shouldn't be there. It should be the first site listed with all the other sites IMO. Otherwise

Also not on the topic of the article, but... I wish people would stop blogging on Google plus. Period. It's the worst reading experience ever on the iPhone - nearly impossible as the text blurs, and you have to drag the article around to s

Exactly. You can use a big happy font, but when step 2 tells me to create a "repository" and I'm already stuck.... well, that's a problem. A repository for what? Is this a folder on my computer somewhere? Should I be moving code into thi

I think it would be better if, instead of circles, the pop-sockets were octagons for little flat edges depending on the angle you were using to rest the device. And the video? The "joke" never ended and got down to details about the produc

Completely agree with "kids get bored". It's to the point we don't bother going. My kids literally groan if I mention going to a movie over the weekend. Then there's going to a 3D movie. It might as well be a punishment. Making kids wat

Can you explain what a "patent release" is?

I totally agree. Programming is a hard thing to "teach" when so many of us "learn" it in order to accomplish something. As the saying goes, some things are taught, and others are learned. I don't have an iPad, so I couldn't try this app, b

I've had a lot of success on the Android Market, but I'm frankly scared to release my numbers. I dwell over it a lot, but I can't figure out how it would help, other than to possibly make myself more popular on the web or to motivate other

Resistive touch screen. I have 2 cheap tablets with resistive touch screens for app testing in-house, and I despise them. I actually wont use them for testing because my games are way too frustrating to play if you have to "press" to make

Agreed. The entire patent departments of all world governments should be abolished. There is no reason the human race should be putting these restrictions on ourselves. It's completely absurd.

It really opens some doors doesn't it :) This looks like a great implementation of the sfxr tool that's been around for a long time. I've seen it in Flash and there's an EXE version too. This one has some nice new add-ons I haven't seen y

My sister is a hair stylist, and I talked to her about apps, and she basically rattled off several different ones for every idea I had, and she even said she has tried to think of a few only to find several that already do everything. There

I've been selling for almost 2 years in the Android Market, have had millions of downloads of my free apps, and tens of thousands of paid app sales. P.S. I have not been invited into this special $0.10 club. I'm guessing because my apps do
