Still could use a little touching up, but I love it none the less :)
This one is going to the top :)
If I only read 5 stories a day, I would probably go crazy. I normally check HN and other various sites 6-8 times a day on average. Cool concept though.
Re:Apple’s protected App Store doesn’t look so bad now on Wednesday March 30, 2011 @11:28AM (#2387653)
I agree with the fact that Apple made a smart move by controlling submissions to the App Store, but I think some responsibility lies in the owners hands in the case of Android. Too many download apps and never once look at the permissions involved before installing. For example if a ringtone app asked for geolocation, something is probably fishy.

I wouldn't be surprised if the people who build them don't actually go inside of them.

That's pretty crazy that they are able to construct such complex vessels, but yet they still resort to trafficking drugs.
This is awesome. Kinda scary for you guys that use geolocation with everything though. I personally try to avoid it.
