@VisforVanity: Yeah, paying for credits is wrong. I just don't think those two are good examples. The IIWAB issue was more of Toby Gad's doing than anyone else's. Beyonce never said she wrote that song, so I find the blame she gets for somehow "stealing" it to be too convenient. And Chrisette Michelle denied on…

@VisforVanity: When did Beyonce ever pretend to write IIWAB? Her name isn't listed as a writer.

I think Things is largely vaporware now. They mentioned working on over-the-air sync over a year ago, yet nothing. It also looks like some developers left. Their last blog post was in April. It seems to be merely a hobby for those left.

Finally, but this app is still missing so many features. I guess that's good for 3rd party clients though.

I can't believe people really expected more. How much 'big' stuff does Apple announce the day before?

Honestly, I lose interest with every clip I see. That number/song just isn't that good. *sigh*

I like Ping. It's not bad if you follow folks that are active on it. I've discovered some decent songs lately because of it.

@Justin: Dude is the shit. Demon Days still gets heavy rotation on my computer and phone.

@brianbeatdown: I agree. I ditched Tweetie a long time ago for that very reason. I'm willing to pay for push notifications.

And this is why an Apple TV nor a Google TV is attractive to me right now. I might as well stick with the 'ol cable box, and spend that money on an extra premium channel.

My attending told me today that his 14 year old son receives (again, receives) 4,000 text messages a month. What. The. Hell. Maybe I'm naive, but I think that's a lot.

@De Gnomer: "political ethics and interests should not mirror corporate 'ethics' and interests."

Some people here need to get a life. Politics and tech are both intertwined whether or not you like it. It's funny how some are so quick to attack Apple, Google, etc. for protecting their corporate interests often times at the expense of its customers, yet your wig gets disheveled when Giz mentions politicians doing…

@Zanzan42: "and have had plenty of time to pass any damn thing they liked. They didn't."

What the hell is this?

@sekushinonyanko: I would agree if the press actually cared about her album. They didn't.

I thought Andy should've went home. The new look was cool, but his other 2 looks are hideous imo. Yet, they're the ones he had time to do at home.

@Hearthatvoiceagain is awaiting his little green chum: And positioning them for cloud computing in the future as well.
