Anyone wanna go over/under on 50% of the apps being Twitter related? (I'm still participating b/c I think it'll be fun and challenging, but I'm going to rack my brain to make sure we build something at least semi-useful...)

In the past there has generally been a pretty impressively wide range of different apps.

In the past the prize categories have meant that people with more unique apps have a significant advantage at the end.

Particularly as the main prize category was the sum of your completeness, design, usefulness and originality ratings. Missing out on any of those categories would make it very hard to be competitive.

The Lame Ducks will be defending our title this year, after winning last year with MeetInBetween.Us. Bring it.

Pardon me if I've missed something, but I find that link totally unsolicited and it adds nothing to the conversation here.
