Very much so...

tl;dr -> "Buy my product"

Actually protecting the users should be. Maybe because I'm a Dad makes me lame like my father was before me, but...

That doesn't answer my question.

Respect your users.

Privacy should always be the number one concern with apps and websites. This is simply just sloppy.

If you can't overreact on the Internet, where can you overreact?

Right so the license says this:

If your application displays Places API data on a map, that map must be provided by Google. Places API responses may include Listings provider attributions in HTML format that must be displayed to the user as provided. Any links included in the HTML must be preserved. We recommend placing this information below any search results or Place Details information.

That would be a violation of the license, right? If you use places, you need to use Google's API to display them.

Here is a great resource to compare Apple tiles and OpenStreetMap tiles at the same time:

I'm curious how much the movement toward the mid-Atlantic states is the growth of federal government consulting jobs over the past 10 years.

Gotcha, might have been a little bit of me reading more into it. Awesome stuff still!

That should appeal the the crowd here, but we've got the data up on our service that can be exported to many other formats, including KML.

It is always good though to see governments try and make using their data easier. Quite a shift...

Could be a rough couple weeks for Curebit. Clearly the Internets is going to go through all their work with a fine tooth comb. I doubt any company could be 100% sure they haven't used non-licensed materials.

That said, Curebit seems to have a bit of a problem on their hands. Smoke, meet fire...

Don't troll that you're sending your iPhone back in the title and then hem and haw in the comments that you might keep it around. What's the Austrailian translation for drama queen?

See that isn't quite right, while the app is free to subscribers to the physical newspaper, those of us who use the online web access don't get access to the iPhone, only the iPad. That's why I'm unhappy. Dudes mockups still leave us online users pissed.

Maybe I'm missing the point, but aren't there tons of 3rd party clients available as well as their own Highrise client?

I'm not fan of Basecamp, but I think they've got a good ecosystem going.

When I first saw this I couldn't understand why it was needed. I mean who wants a $500 mouse?

After thinking about it though it starts to make sense to me. Of course no one in their right mind would buy an iPad to use Remote Conductor, but those of us with iPads can take advantage of the "Launch Mode". I'm sold.

You'd think that wouldn't you, but clearly that isn't how it works. Something about making my index fingers hit those key requires a lighted keyboard now.

Again, I'm aware I'm being soft here.

Got to spend money to make money.

Hmm, wait that isn't right...

re: backlit keyboard

Once you live with it, you can't live without it. I've become so spoiled in my years....

It was a different world back then (both the design and implementation of the Concorde). France and Britain both put billions into the program in the hopes of being on the leading edge of the supersonic revolution. Clearly they were the leading edge, but there was no revolution.

It was the small, slow 737 and A320 that really changed aviation. I can fly between cities for less than $50 (on special) in 2011. Price won out over service and speed.

So true, I guess that is why there are still 800/900 number services that will perform the wake up call in 2011.

A good way to find the notification bug in iOS4! ;)

If I used and iPhone to wake up, I'd check every night before I went to bed to be sure the alarm worked. It isn't like this is the first time this has happened.

I keep jumper cables in my car because the electrical system drains the battery (and I'm too cheap to get a new car). I do so because I know it will need it eventually. How many times will the alarm clock "bug" have to bite before people start taking precautions.

I wouldn't be dependent on an iPhone to wake up in the morning.

or, "How I failed to see the thousands of blog posts and tweets telling me this was going to happen".
