#6 Fewer

#35 Every Time!

You're right that the perspective is off, but it's nothing nefarious. It's just perspective distortion from a telephoto lens.

In my defense I wrote that from my phone. :(

This is literally the best thing that has ever happened.

#12 is awesome!

Could it be that this is an app that nerds want but the general public doesn't? Just because people have had huge successes where others failed before (Facebook, Pinterest) doesn't mean that all ideas have potential markets that are simply waiting to be cracked. There was never any chance that Foursquare as it was imagined would grow beyond nerds and young urbanites —the fact that it's turning into Yelp in order to grow proves that point. Knowing where your friends are at all the time just isn't something that's useful to most people beyond the age of 25. Facebook and Pinterest (and even Twitter to some extent) have become huge successes not because of the young but because of bored middle-aged people who are stuck at home at night with sleeping kids. The only way I see realtime location working is if it goes viral among middle/high school/college kids the way, say, Tumblr is—which is a possibility as more and more kids get smartphones. But even then it don't think it will ever click for mainstream adults.

The space between the lines is called “leading,” and actually I think it's perfect.

It's for the kids. The iPad will never feel like more that a toy to me. But for my children it is/will be what they think of as a “computer”. It's the future—except it's here now. That's why it feels weird to us old folks.

The Air kind of iPad-ifies the Mac line from this perspective. There's only one config option on the Air—memory—the rest are all add-ons.  If they were smart they'd present the config options like the iPad and then present you with all the add-ons after you've added it to your cart. But they'd probably sell fewer Applecare subscriptions and superdrives that way.

Wait… I'm confused. Didn't Lin already win the Superbowl?

RIP, but as someone who has read these books recently I need to point out that they are f'in terrible.  They are just chock full of horrible 50s-era family values dogma and are excruciatingly boring reads to boot.  Avoid like the plague if you have kids.

I have never before enjoyed a cat post as much as I have this one.

Doesn't this show that while Romney is weak with base Republicans he does very well with moderates and centrists? As long as he can score the nomination the base Republicans don't matter that much, do they? In the general election they're just going to be voting against Obama. Moderate conservatives and the “undecideds,” however, seem much more likely to vote for Romney in the general election which would pose a bigger challenge to Obama than a more conservative candidate.
