Draw Something didn't make nearly the amount of money that King is making with all of its games at the top of the grossing charts. OMGPOP's aquisition if I remember correctly was more about users directly competing in Zynga's

Wave Storms have been around for years so this story really doesn't cover anything new. It's also not really disruption because Wave Storms are considered entry level boards that if anything drives demands for more expensive board

Bullying by locals doesn't really happen and if you've experienced it, it's most likely a safety issue or you're violating some surfing etiquette. Head over to Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/surfin

You make a good point but all the best streamers absolutely need good hardware to be able to a stream high quality video feeds at a good frame rate. In addition, they get sponsored by hardware companies to mention what hardware they're

There is definitely a shortage of Android devs, especially domestic in the U.S. Haven't even been able to get a resume come in that isn't from overseas.

It sure can be an eye sore. But, I'd rather that than deal with ambiguity working with Coffeescript syntax.

I subscribe to Playboy. Among all my magazines while their issues do have the occasional great article, the issues are just really thin and other magazines more often have better reads. What they do have is a brand. Getting rid of nudity ma

These past two days has been a crazy barrage of Amazon products. Way to ship, especially after all the hard work articles about them recently.

This is pretty cool and all but a comfy office couch is pretty sufficient for power naps during siesta hour.

For product based small businesses I think $25/mo is pretty competitive. UI/UX is pretty well designed, at least from what I can see in the free trial. I am a bit confused with the the hamburger menu on the top right and the Edit

What a great step in the right direction. Every time I navigate through another government website in search of information, it is a different experience. I'm all for consistency and can't wait until this is well adopted in all th

As a consumer I can relate to this. I subscribe to many monthly magazines including GQ and Esquire. I enjoy the publication as it is meant to be viewed, ads and all. Of course, now they're piled up and so I want to switch to digital. S

The main use cases are for people who are Facebook friends. I really can't fault Venmo too much here because they only deal w/ money. To me, they technically did their job. They protected the people that send the money, not the pe

Here's my user flow. I sign up and connect w/ Facebook. I connect my bank account. Separately, my friend who I rarely see does the same thing w/ his Facebook account and bank account. A few months later we meet, I pay the ful

While I do sympathize with the victims, Venmo protects sending money and so I'm totally okay with their policies. The people involved in transactions should be mutually trusted parties. Craigslist is a place where scams happen all the

Neither, really. You're technically not allowed to do business on Venmo. The intended use case is to send money to people you trust. If someone sends money they can always get that money back by claiming the recipient violated terms or

Making a bank transfer isn't 'simple', at least relative to Venmo. This is a way of paying someone just like Paypal. Except, the UI is better and you can hook up to Facebook. Because 'everyone' has it (at least w&#x

The 'this' I think you're referring to is motion control. While the Wii certainly didn't change the world it was very revolutionary and drew its competitors to copy w/ the Kinect and PS Move. Something revolutionary

In my opinion Ouya was built for casual gamers but marketed towards hardcore gamers. Do you know any casual gamers that backed it? Even if you did, the execution of the hardware and production was poor. They had more than just market proble

I wasn't referring to specifically innovation. While games like Candy Crush are generally frowned upon by the non-casual gamers, iOS as a marketplace is rather well adopted by all sorts of developers from indie to AAA. Hell, even Ninte

This changes gaming. I need a bluetooth controller accessory and devs will really be able to go far with this. edit: While everyone here seems to disagree, many indie devs have been waiting for this for a while. It will essentially be the b

I like it, and it works for now, but there's definitely a latency issue for some of the games. Looks like the phone and browser are connected to the server through web sockets. I've tried something similar and I don't know if

Believe it or not I'm star struck. I remember reading an interview about how you guys dealt with fitting such a large game into such a small space with a paging system. Amazing and inspiring! Thanks for the childhood memories :)

I was in NYC a few weeks ago and Lyft Line was $5 flat rate anywhere in Manhattan! Beats taking the subway if you ask me. On a more related note when I was in Bushwick in Brooklyn it was pretty much impossible to even see a cab let alone ha

Looking at it as it is, this can seem ridiculous. But, considering their domestic and international expansion it really isn't. Uber can pretty much replace cabs worldwide. When Uber has its driver API service fleshed out, you can expec
