Not really about the app (It looks neat however) but on the site, the "Take a tour" section should display the screen shots in a gallery, lightbox or some such. It's rather hard to view them all.

'For us the living' is also another interesting book by him. Sorta the anti-Atlas Shrugged.

Another good introduction to Ayn Rand is the 'Virtue of Selfishness'. Its a collection of her essays with some that were written by people in her group. Its pretty short (100ish pages) and in my opinion says about everything she was trying

The page does make it clearer when a company has endorsed the page or not. A couple observations * I don't think the "X has Opted Out of this Community" and "X is not yet participating" states are both needed. Just labeling it as unofficial

With the added complexity of making it mulitplayer you would also have to deal with the increased costs of keeping the game running. Right now when they finish a game the only recurring costs they pay is hosting,bandwidth,and support. If th

If its a restful web service you could try http://github.com/yfactorial/objectiveresource/tree/master . It's basically a port of Active Resource to Obj C. You can use it if its not a restful service you just have to override some function

The difference is that very few if any plugins are sold and it is somewhat easy to downgrade to an older version of Firefox. Could you imagine what would happen if iPhone OS 2.3 came out and 10% of the apps in the itunes store stopped worki

That dot operator took me forever to understand , its highly unintuitive. @synthesize should of just created the setMethod and getMethod that would make sense. Not some weird property light. I'm also a big fan of the parameter descriptions,

yeah , it was interesting. It is a little difficult to actually see what they are making , but it appears they have paid for some marketing either 12K or 7K depending on if the 5K free marketing 'income' is applied to the expense

I would also add actually having some text to put in the site helps. Completely off topic , I really like the design of that site.

Exactly, and he seemed to limit his scope of car companies to American car companies. Since the Auto Industry is global one the number is much higher. And just because you have a lot of players in a market doesn't mean all of them are going

Wow thanks man. I generally go to ethic stores for spices which is really cheap compared to conventional grocery stores. But not as cheap as that.

If your whole foods has a bulk section its rather economical to shop there for that. But on the topic of cheap/good for you eats: Can't go wrong with burritos made with beans,corn and rice.

In addition to adding some more color ( I would use kuler and upload your logo then mess around with the colors) , I would removed the 'detele blank images' button you display on the playlist page.

I second the Rails Way book , its a great book thats easy to follow and organized. For learning Ruby I found http://www.amazon.com/Ruby-Programming-Language-David-Flanag... to be great

If thats the case I shouldn't be able to. I also might add a up button and a down button (like the left/right buttons you have on the top) so the user is aware the list scrolls. Similar to the Google Reader Widget for iGoogle.

Looks nice. The only thing I found is if you scroll up in the news list area it doesn't stop at today's news , it loops back to a couple days ago. Which is rather unintuitive.

I think really what he is arguing is the marginal benefit of learning a new language diminishes with each new language. Which is probably true if you only learn the syntax and then move on. But thats not what software development is ,the la

My question would be why did rails' models take so long to do compared to django. The examples they gave the rails were shorter (granted neither were complex) I'm going to assume that they have the same number of models (5ish) so it can't b

My complaint with it when I was messing around with it was I wasn't about to sit the and type into a textfield and not use some-sort of editor. But it appears they fixed that. I just wonder how useful it will be to working on the deployed c
