"that everyone can see" makes me want to see completely analogue tabulators that tally the vote using only mechanical means, inside glass cases that are being recorded and streamed. Less seriously, add random dry ice steam, fire,

Twitter must have to deal with a lot of hacking attempts. If they go into that mode, I could see them falling victim to semi-regular disruptions to service and higher profile account takeovers, that would push at least some users away from

Like I said, make an educated decision. However, the largest reason that authors make so little is that the publishing houses overwhelmingly give them next to nothing. So no, downloads are not the problem. Anecdotally, I have never had an a

They won't let you call anything but their crappy camera app by intent already, for supposed privacy reasons. As you intimate, what is the point of allowing mobile apps, if they can't access any of the features of the device? Beca
