If we're talking fees, take a peek at the website FeeX.com, they offer a lot of recommendations for similar funds to what is in your portfolio, but with lower fees. I know they link with various financial institutions so you don't have to manually enter in data, but manual options worked fine for me. [no disclaimer…

While this and the last release from the company don't really interest me, I love the studios direction and hope they keep pumping out various releases. Run Zombies, their mystery based walking game, and Superhero Workout are all fun and addictive. I wish more companies would step up to the plate in this area,…

I wonder if this takes into account the new trend of funds with target retirement dates?

Their 'Superhero Workout' is based on a similar theme, except you're a superhero, instead of a nostalgic NES human.

I love using Sunrise, but I wonder how it'll stack up to the official Google Calendar app that releases soon (or at least is coming according to Gizmodo)...http://gizmodo.com/android-just-g…

The best two pieces of advice I've ever been given since starting to work from home: 1- Commit to your morning routine (shower, shave, dress, coffee, relax) before you slide into work, and 2- go for a run during those long/boring conference calls for which you mentally check out after initial greetings and 'how's the…

Speaking of the Bay Area, transit is fine if you live downtown, but the second you're more than a mile out, it's hell getting to the Caltrain or finding a bus. Do they have GPS/real-time arrival information for their transit yet (Caltrain/BART/Bus)? The iOS app 'Transit' has an amazing widget that I've fallen in…

I've lived car-free for the past 4 years, in many cities to boot. I agree that it makes a big difference about WHICH city you live in. One topic untouched is public perception of going car-free. It's quite accepted in SF/NYC, but rarely have I found it to be the norm elsewhere. I would love to see the article (or…

Thanks for the input, so let me rephrase: Swap out camera for ambient light sensor in my statements above, and I'll still pose my question of the frequency for which the sensor scans. Also, I'm curious what the difference between that and FLUX is.

Ahh, so that's what that thing was. To think, I was only a Google search away. Thanks for dropping knowledge!

I'm still confused why auto-brightness is such an issue with iOS. My assumption of how it works is that the camera takes periodic reads of brightness levels and then auto-adjusts the screen brightness to what it 'sees'. If my understanding is correct (?), perhaps a future option should just be to allow the user to…

I love the idea and just signed up to take it for a spin, but how does this differ from similar apps like Refresh, or the browser based Discoverly?

If I could, I'd edit out the couple of digs I took at Facebook, but my mobile question still remains.

Thank you Facebook, this is a very solid addition and a well thought of use case. I hope they continue to seek out meaningful and helpful additions like this instead of a complete monetization focus. That said, does this Safety Check apply to all Facebook mobile products? As in, will I receive this notification on…

The off-contract options are crazy cheap when you BYO phone. Does the math work out to still being 'crazy cheap' if you have an addiction to the latest iPhone/Droid every other year, or does sticking with AT&T/etc. for the subsidy remain a good deal? (cough, like me, cough)

Sorry for the confusion, I love the Touch ID integration additions though too. I didn't mean that it's hard to pick out differences from older versions, I meant it's hard to distinguish feature differences between all four separate applications (ex- when you read their fact sheets, they all seem to quote the same…

Now that the iOS 8 updates are all out, can we get an updated Lifehacker comparison between the password managers? KeePass is $0, 1Password is $10, Lastpass $12, Dashlane $40, and I'm sure there are other solid alternatives too, but aside from that and Touch ID integration, it's really hard to pick out any…

Are there any blog posts about when PayPal will finally support 2-factor authentication with their iPhone application? Currently you have to disable it to login, or choose to keep it enabled and only use the web.

What a bummer, Apple has since pulled this app from the App Store and didn't allow the developer to release a new version with some bugfixes. Lame (http://al.cromulentlabs.com/thanks/)

Just like AirBnB, it's all about the individual owner that you interact with, but I've had good experiences so far. Plus, their website has an instant 10% off coupon, so you can't go wrong with trying it I suppose. GeekWire's website put up a user experience with them recently too if you google it.
