I agree, I also bought/gained knowledge of "Threes" after first playing 2048...
To add to the differences in game play you listed, I find myself managing the pairing of RED and BLUE tiles in "Threes" more of an objective than matching the numbers because if you don't the game quickly ends.
Cool site, so I went to find a link to the RSS feed... "D'oh!" - No button.
So I added rss onto the end of the url (common practice)... "D'oh!" - error code dump.
fix that and I'll be back for more ;)
Having the ability to listen to music from one source is important to many and Rdio has no "Local File" support. This is necessary for artists/albums Rdio doesn't have in it's library and it's a reason myself and many others won't ever make the jump from Spotify.
You're "investing a ton of money" into getting a high quality image, only to then turn around and slap a watermark on it, which more than likely has now downgraded the quality of the image.
To fully deter your competitors from using it, you have to place the watermark in the center of the image/over the product so that they can't easily crop it out.
Now from the potential customers perspective they want to look at those quality images you took and visualize having that product, however now they have to look past/around your watermark which kind of puts a downer in their customer experience.
TLDR: So you've spent tons of money on photos to slap a watermark on top of them and hinder customer experience?
Been watching something very similar now geared to social writing, but less technical.
So is the marketplace going to be open to developer/designers as well?
Not sure why you're quoting this. I read this when I visited the page... I just find it ridiculous that if I pay the $24.99 to upgrade, I will have put close to $100 into an app that basically stores passwords for me conveniently.
Supported this company with the first version of 1Password. Then paid again for a family version of v3 last year, as well as the paid version for the iPhone which has been somewhat of a let down... now they want more money. All so I can store/use passwords.
I've spent less money on other apps that I actually spend more time using daily. Guess I'll start searching for some alternatives before they start dropping support for v3.
$8.99 is too high for this to be worth while for most readers, IMO. I'm a pretty regular reader and I'm lucky to get through 1 and half books a month. Most books I buy are under this price (around $5)... I can sample from Amazon before I buy, so I don't see the benefit here unless you're a power reader and most people are not.
I could see a person wanting to use as a "Discovery" tool, that's a big reason I subscribe to Spotify.
However, Amazon offers samples of eBooks (most of them I believe) and they offer that service for free.
For $9.95 a month, I'd rather support my local library/bookstore. Unlike movies, where I could watch 5-6 on a really lazy Saturday, books take quite a bit more time. I'm a pretty regular reader and I'm lucky if I get through 2 books a month.
Based on: http://gawker.com/5971571/are-you-an-above+average-book-read...
I read about the average (outlier) person, so for $9.95 I'd rather own the one or two books I can read that month, which would cost close (give or take) to the same amount as they're offering.
It looks like it should be on a bottle of perfume.
Totally missed the little line of text under the other paying plans the first time I looked at their pricing page.
No need to be sneaky about it. Adding the "FREE Plan" along side the other paying plans, instead of hiding it underneath, would help ease the feeling that they're solely out for my dollars.
Like the additions, but going to have to agree... liked it better when it was all one page rather than having to scroll back to the top and click back and forth between pages... I often used the page for reference when scanning icons and for example usage.
As soon as they find a way to put ads in it...
Agreed. Look at just early this week when ComiXology went down and users lost access to their comics for an extended period of time.

Awesome... Thanks!
So will this always be invite only or will it be opened to the public eventually?
Ah! Twas looking under my account, has no such link... Thanks for your help!
I'm still missing it... any help for us blind bats?
