"The only thing that's missing is the ability to sell "icons" on the app store that merely subscribe one to a web app and stick the link on their home screen." The thing that is really missing is iTunes accounts, i.e., the ability for your

The iTunes stores! It is monopoly at its finest. Apple could eventually half the price if the masses by their books and software and rent or buy their movies all from Apple. Eventually, there will be an iPad to Apple TV interface, and they

One of the more disappointing thing about programming for the iPhone and not the web, is that Apple's approval process makes it impossible to pull this off for any non-webview/data features. I guess that is the price paid for an app store t

"AT&T came up with the idea for buzz.com about a year and a half ago, says David Krantz, president and chief executive of AT&T Interactive" He says that so casually, like it was an original idea. And, he's not bothered by the fact t

Apple makes the best hardware. I'm not talking about ram, processor speed, power, blah, blah, blah. I'm talking about the best integrated package, between design, specs, and OS. Apple also makes some of the best software. Developers make so

They won't be unique to the device. The iPhone already has crosswords, writing apps, twitter apps, sudoko apps, etc. The only things unique about Kindle apps will be the slightly larger screen, lack of animation, lack of color, and lack of

I think this is an overly extreme view and you may be able to see it from another light is you take a second to think it through. First, let me say, I'm not defending the past or present practices of the major labels. I agree that their tac

That was a joke, really. The scene here is limited. There are a few of us working on interesting things. The problem is when they take off the founders tend to move, like the guys behind Ping and Noah. Anyway, when you do move look me up.

The real story is the Tulsa tech scene. First, the Ping.fm acquisition and now the Twitpic story. Tulsa FTW.

You would think that Techcrunch would understand that even if uniques visitors to twitter.com may have "stalled" many users are moving away from twitter.com and to api services.

The protocol doesn't have to be open for everyone forever. When these feeder companys begin profitting, and when Twitter determines the time is right, they can charge for acess to the protocol.

I've met Sean and Adam and they seem to be smart, hardworking guys. I remember Adam saying Ping.fm is about the tenth app, or "thing" they worked on, although I'm sure many of those other projects were completed over a weekend or given litt

Lets give the author a break. I'm pretty sure it is written as a joke. Is it a waste of time? Yes. Should it have been on HN? Probably not.

I appreciate your analogy, however, I believe the author is saying that discontinuing the use of the antibiotic at anytime in the next year, will lead to a detrimental relapse. I don't necessarily agree, but the argument is predicated on, a

And, the payment system you end up incorporating will not be as dead simple to use as iTunes. As bad as Apple is at vetting and distributing software (when compared to the web they are bad a distributing software, at least in terms of speed

I'm inclined to agree. Trade secret would be one of the compelling objections I left room for in my my comment.

From what I read, Apple isn't agreeing to, they may be compelled to by the judge. You are correct, apple isn't selling users the software on the devices, they are licensing it, and the terms of that license likely stipulates that users have

When you run that adwords campaign, split test. I have a suspicion you are going to make how a user can download an app from your site far more obvious. The site looks attractive, though.

How did they respond to that? Obviously, they were still interested enough to proceed with the offer, but do you think they offered less because of that condition? Also, what went into preparing them to take the reins? I guess you probably

There are several iPhone apps linked to twitter that notify users that they are about to tweet such and such. If you do this, make it easy to decline and continue to play. You will lose some of the viral aspect, but you will satisfy the HN
