Maybe I did not make it clear enough, but my point was that the title "If Apple Won't Innovate The User Experience, Android Designers Will" does not make sense since iOS already has the features the they are "innovating" When I hear innovat

They took almost all of the iOS UX and pasted some new ugly graphics on top. I did not see a single thing that iOS does not do. Drag to reorder, got it, splashscreen info/camera, got it, notifications, got it, even the swipe down from the

Comcast Business. I built my personal blog on Rails and use Heroku so hopefully people won't have an issue like that (Once I get around to actually posting something!)

Valid logical points; However the RIAA and MPAA don't operate on Logic or Validity.

Wow, in before API access is cut to prevent the mountain of lawsuits that would hit Dropbox if it's not. API cut in 3... 2... 1...

Not all games support MSAA, however yes it's much more GPU friendly.

Yes however retina games don't require 4x AA to look great. So you're trading one performance hit for another.

Well like it or not with the App Store you need to go Big or go Home. There is almost no place for default interface elements in most Apps because you get lost in a sea of crappy generic apps. I only use them as a placeholder to wireup the

I don't think that's constructive to the discussion. While I agree the name is a bit strange in english maybe it's not in France where the startup is based?

It's like bootstrap for iOS, kinda cool because lets be honest, the default Round Rect is UGLY. I like how it's vector, that helps keep bundles small (instead of a bunch of custom button PNGs I usually have to have in there) I had exactly t

I used to commute from Miramar to Pompano Beach up i95 every day, 45min to 1:30 just to go 18miles.. So I don't see them that far off.

Rails is not my bread and butter however in iOS I find it'a almost always better to split things out into helper classes. Otherwise when you find that you end up needing that method in other parts of the app and then you either have to brea

Craigslist is in major need of disruption. Actually apartment finding in general sucks I can't think of a single goto place to look for apartments other then Craigslist and that just proves point #1!

At least there was no BSOD. :P I can give them a little bit of leeway since it's prerelease. However I have the feeling that Windows 8 is not going to be just rushed out the door, but pushed kicking and screaming. This is not a good sign!

Wordpress is PHP.. not Ruby. I'd say it's counter productive because it makes you seem like you don't know an ant from an elephant.

Interesting read, seems to nail the main points really well. P.S Why is the Wordpress stament at the top in Ruby?

Wow that thing looks almost exactly like a iPad with a smartcover. I thought they would have at least tried something different.

It's cool, I'm interested in trying it out. Rethink the use of Lobster as your logo/text font a bunch of different companies Including Codecademy and HireAry use it. So it's Generic at best.

I went to design school, I visited Art Basil. Agree++ Seriously, maybe it's because I'm really a hacker that was interested in design but "Art" as in the starving/gallery kind is 99% crap - 1% mind blowing.

Bad, Bad, Bad idea.. I pay for Dropbox every month however if they are going to start cutting useful features I might as well just go with iCloud.

Oh, forgot to add purchased with a student discount. So when you're saving $200 and you take a $200 hit it's really $400 less then retail.

Exactly, that form did not seem if it had been written for that specific case but rather something they could select in the system for why they were returning the item.

True, and it just goes to show you need to treat ALL of your customers with respect because you never know who are the ones who can Hurt or Help your business.
