Having just started using Parse for a recent iPhone app, I will say this is a pretty awesome feature. We have many channels that get automatically sent notifications using the REST API, so monitoring their activity will be very useful.

how do you plan on gaining traction in this market? i remember what seemed like 100s of these type of sites popping up all over the place when Siri was announced, and that was months ago.

Unfortunately this seems to be a pretty common occurrence. I have seen it quite often in the Entertainment section with apps like X-Ray Scan or Phone Tracker. Not sure why nothing is ever done about it.

agreed, right there with you. my main apple id is gmail, but i do already have a me.com account also. would like to merge but it seems the only option on the iPhone is to create a new one, not sign-in with an existing one.

Off topic: Anyone else read this title as "What I Learned From Fixing my Mom's Laptop"? I think I have been doing too much tech support for my mom and her friends lately.

i think technically it is $150 more, since the only way to get the antiglare is with the hi-res option. definitely annoying.

Since you are making outbound calls, I'm curious how you will handle verification of phone numbers? It looks like I can enter whatever phone number(s) I want, which seems like it could be abused by spammers.

I have had similar experiences with apps before where someone from the App Store review team actually called me about an app rejection. Very surprising, but that sort of feedback definitely helps a great deal. Unforunately, I have also seen

the part around the 41 second mark where he flips open the cover concerns me a little, notice him placing his left hand on the hinge area for support. i wonder if maybe it comes off too easily.

any early testers have any thoughts on how this compares to Fitbit? i am a big fan of Fitbit and their customer support is pretty amazing.

i assume the obvious issue with this is browser support? and what about mobile platforms? and then having everyone agree on a standard method for the salt/hash? sounds nice in theory though.

No mention of YUI yet? I have been using it for years and can't imagine using any other framework. YUI can be somewhat low level, but YUI 2 has grown to provide many impressive components like layout manager, menus, data tables, rich text
