Oddly enough, the people that actually love those backseat catalogs are our core audience at the moment. This current incarnation was more of a following rather than leading our audience. We're in the process of remedying this "kitsch" rig

We're actually looking at this very issue right now. At the moment most of our submitters tend to be spare time tinkerers that actually really believe in their products, so much so that they're willing to spend $99 dollars on the chance to

Fun toy. I honestly never thought about how ubiquitous Google Analytics really was. Hope you win your emmy!

You're skipping the one very good and valid point he makes in the article, which is that the bill actually has an exemption which pretty much permits services like AirBnB to exist, if not thrive. Basically, short term rentals are acceptable

I like charts that don't have any numerical basis. You've just arbitrarily illustrated their trend towards fewer privacy restrictions in a way that will certainly sway people to your argument but only represents your sentiments and nothing

Everything is expensive when you consider 'money left on the table.' Privacy is not any more expensive than building a service to expose that data outsiders for pay.

Because there weren't any alternatives, but now that I see Google Chrome has restored full screen browsing on OS X, I doubt I'll be going back.

I actually use this on a daily basis and I must say it leaves something to be desired. It isn't stable and for whatever reason it'll often just drop external styling until reloaded.

Funny, when Apple had Wireless N hardware in old Macbooks that was not enabled at the time of sale, it required users to pay a small amount for a firmware upgrade under the guise of complying with Sarbox. Really glad that Google has chosen

This article really isn't all that informative, and given your other submissions, one might assume that you're just trying to promote your social gaming endeavor.

"Less is more... especially in your first few iterations." I can see how this would lead to 'holes' in a platform or generally ambiguous application boundaries.

I'm still desperately trying to figure out where exactly the Twitter platform is supposed to end. Are we supposed to believe that a platform these days is an all encompassing primarily closed ecosystem like Facebook (which I suppose is good

As a developer, I hate being involved in sweeping generalizations about developers. I'd honestly, like those that I work with to understand and recognize me as an individual with tastes and needs that may or may not be like any other member

You'd think after the EA wives scandal, that some action more meaningful than a strongly worded letter would be taken.

This might have more to do with the Droid keyboard actually being that bad (it is rather cramped compared to the G1) than individual users developing a global preference.

Any news surrounding the CrunchPad has to be taken as seriously as everything else from Arrington's mouth, which is to say not very. I'm surprised it has made it this far, but I doubt we'll see an actual product in the near future, otherwis

Seems a bit like foursquare but without close ties to existing locations or the game aspects... and of course you charge users to create the very content which makes it valuable to them. I think there needs to be more incentive for users th

Because it did so well when it was still Dodgeball. Just make a better client and have it feel like a game instead of 'just another social network.' Brilliant. Edit: And if I recall correctly, Dodgeball predated Twitter, which might be some
