This is fantastic! Thanks for posting this!
Just terrible :( Why does it always seem like the worst and most insignificant wastes of human beings always take away great ones?

I was annoyed at the sheer length of time it took to receive a formal invitation. They built up hype way too early. By the time it was available I didn't really care anymore, I had moved on to other things out of frustration. How are you supposed to successfully launch a site in which you interact with friends but not let anyone in (at a decent rate)?

Nobody wants to carry around another gaming device in addition to phones that are completely capable of doing the same things. 3DS' 3D abilities seem more gimmicky than useful. Putting classic titles on the App Store and Android Marketplace (that are no longer being sold or generating revenue) seems like a no brainer to me.
I would like to see data on developer profits from paid/ad based apps though. I wonder if this may be due to more free apps on the Android Marketplace.

Facebook has made some weird UI design choices lately to say the least.
Did WP7 ever have ground in the mobile market?

@bsphil Try being human
This is great! Thanks for the link!
Simple yet biased answer: Android owners want free apps, iOS users are more willing to pay.
This is why I will never buy an Android device. Device manufactures have ruined the platform.

How many actual active users does myspace still have at this point?
