To be fair, of the last three years of owning an iPhone, I can only remember two or three instances where I was reading about an app and had an impulse to purchase it right then and there. I do see/understand the advantage of having a deep-

Or, gym memberships? I'm paying nearly 70 bucks a month for a membership I haven't used in over three months! (Mostly job related - 18 hour days leave very little room for the gym...) I would love if the gym could check my activity and say,

Hah! I loved the cold (and snow) when I was younger. As I got older (and commuting became a larger part of my daily life), I too grew to despise the cold/winters in the north. I actually understand why you'd prefer to deal with the hot/humi

I voted no. I lived in the South for over 15 years and still have family down there. I'd visit, but wouldn't live there. What I remember: - Hot. And not just any hot, but sticky humid hot. - It's a very small part for me, but racism. I'm mi

Wait, is this true for OS X as well? I could understand this for Windows, but Quicktime on OS X is great (especially with Perian...) Hopefully this isn't true for the OS X version of Chrome. Otherwise, I'll be switching back to Safari...

Competition is healthy. It leads to better products and happier consumers. I prefer the iPhone as well, but I wouldn't want Apple to be the only player in the game.

Thank you for confirming this!

Could it be possible that Pandora has access to the IP address for the device when you initially connect to the service? It wouldn't be a specific geo location, but even "Northern California" would be beneficial for advertisers I would thin

I know they've had a five song limit since the iPhone 4 came out. I had the original version, which had unlimited tagging, but when I upgraded to the iPhone 4, I had to re-download the same Shazam app I had installed on my 3G. The same vers

My dad, who is far from being technically-savvy, owns an iPhone (a Christmas gift from my brother and I to our parents.) He wasn't a fan of the phone at first. Too complicated, too hard to make calls, etc. However, something amazing (consid

I'm curious: Do you find you use the iPad more because of that one app? Or, is the iPad strictly used for At Bat, and the rest of your time (email, browsing, etc.) used on the Xoom? I know Apple likes to advertise how many apps they have, b

While I love Firebug, I'd have to counter that organization with CSS is actually quite important (and does have its benefits!) This is especially true when you're working either in a team environment or on a large site. The very nature of C

With the exception of the horizontal CSS (personal preference - unless its compressed, I prefer things on new lines), I like everything you said. (I actually find the tab-indented elements really interesting and may have to try it on my nex

Trust me, you wouldn't. The one-liners just add noise for us people who are looking for good content! :)

Even better is when you realize SIDT is loaded with karma... Honestly though, I find a ton of content too heavily dictated by it. On reddit, it's routine to see [deleted] posts, or nonsensical one-liners, all with the purpose of propping up

Why? Are you an atheist with plans to move to the Czech Republic? Are you a Christian that believes God will smite the Czech Republic down for their disobedience to God?

A coworker of mine shared an experience she had in college a while back. Many years ago, for a course project, she proposed software that would allow you to tag songs and get information about it. Perfect for identifying that obscure song a

I signed up for a Twitter account (which I've since deactivated) when I attended a jQuery conference in Boston a few years ago. The live tweets that went around were not only hilarious, but also relevant to the discussions. In addition, I s

Wouldn't it be ironic if Steve Jobs, during his iPad 2 keynote, drove developers to the Android market by pointing out the low app number for tablets? With just 100 apps for Android tablets, NOW seems like the perfect chance to get your app

You're right, it isn't the same. This analogy would make sense if Apple was exclusively selling the iPad through their retail stores alone (and maybe a partner, say Target) whereas all other stores (BestBuy, Staples, etc.) were selling Andr

Everything you mentioned, I've also done (with the exception of using it out in drizzle and snow - that just seems crazy!) Once, during my commute home, I decided to play music via iTunes (my iPod had died). I arrived home, walking to the d

Goodness, your comment seems to imply you have an issue with Apple products, their policies, and/or Steve Jobs. Yeah, the guy writes about OS X and Apple, but he's been a tech consultant for nearly two decades. He's worked with various tech

It's amazing to me how consistent the UI has been over the years. I guess it's true: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

We switched over to Skype as our primary tool for inter-office communication(s) a few years ago. It's been a fun day. I've actually resorted to sending out e-mails (like it was 2001, hah!) The lack of distractions is quite nice, though. =)

When I lived in Boston, my iPhone 4 had amazing coverage and call quality was great. Never experienced a dropped call. Absolutely loved the phone. Then I moved to Silicon Valley. I've been counting down the days for Verizon to pick up the i
