> Weather Timeline used to be awesome, but it used Dark Sky APIs and got shut down during this whole Apple acquisition thing.

What? Was it shut down by the ‘acquisition thing’ that was announced today, or the API that Apple will be supporting for the next 18 months?

I think you’re drawing conclusions not supported by anything.

His timeline is messed up. A year ago, Weather Timeline got pulled from the app store because sales wasn't covering the API cost. After a month or two, it got sold to the company that made MyRadar.

Ah indeed, my mistake. It wasn't a result of this Apple thing after all. Thanks!
