Maybe now Google will do something to help App developers from being sued.

Didn't Steve Jobs say Mobile Me sucked at WWDC 2011?

Yes, because with 5.6% of the market share and 56% of the profits Apple is hurting.. lol Get real, Google can only hope to make that amount of money on Android.

You're right.

Can you show us the patents Google has on notifications?

Exactly, funny how the android fan boys down ranked your comments.

So what? Google is a relatively new company. To say they would spend all that money on patents and then not attempt to enforce them is very naive.

Yeah it interesting. I work Tech Support, and often get angry customers, when I deal with them I have to try and remember where they are coming from, how they feel and think, otherwise I end up angry myself and it makes it a lot harder to deal with them.

Great video, thank you for sharing that link.

I agree, it was the same after Snow Leopard. It was the same with Windows 7, although maybe less so since Vista was sooo horrible and a lot of people were happy for the change.

Yeah really, I stopped reading "adapting to “natural scrolling” is difficult due to years of muscle memory." I'm sorry but I've had no problems using 'natural scrolling', doesn't it take a few days to get use to yes, but it's possible to get use to it. If for whatever reason you cannot get use to it, you can always change your settings to the 'old' scrolling style.

If anything, I'm disappointed that Lion wasn't even more of a change, but I guess for me it would have been change for the sake of change, as Lion, just like Snow Leopard works great for me.

Additionally, others I personal know that have switched to Lion, no one has any problems with it and everyone likes it. Granted we're all a bunch of geeks working Tech Support and use Windows as well.

That's pretty much how it is. My wife teaches in a NYC public school and has a big issue with plagiarism, although there she can report it all she wants and no one would do anything. Additionally if she tried to assign homework like this professor suggest they would not do it. They would simply take a zero then to have to do a presentation. And then it becomes an issue where the students fail and the teachers passing average drops severely.

Have you seen the ages of the people arrested, I wouldn't say many of them are 'kids', one was i believe like 42, another 36 and another 32.. This from 'fox news':

"The department identified the suspects in the California indictment as Christopher Wayne Cooper, 23, aka “Anthrophobic;” Joshua John Covelli, 26, aka “Absolem” and “Toxic;” Keith Wilson Downey, 26; Mercedes Renee Haefer, 20, aka “No” and “MMMM;” Donald Husband, 29, aka “Ananon;” Vincent Charles Kershaw, 27, aka “Trivette,” “Triv” and “Reaper;” Ethan Miles, 33; James C. Murphy, 36; Drew Alan Phillips, 26, aka “Drew010;” Jeffrey Puglisi, 28, aka “Jeffer,” “Jefferp” and “Ji;” Daniel Sullivan, 22; Tracy Ann Valenzuela, 42; and Christopher Quang Vo, 22. One individual’s name has been withheld by the court.

I don't see how he's a coward, he's coming up with new ways to teach his students that make it so they are not able or less able to cheat. If he was a coward he would just continue to teach in a way that was still easy to cheat. He's even asking for ideas on other ways to prevent cheating.

hmm I don't see a invite link to send invites out.. where is it?

I agree, I find Google+. I don't see my non-Geek friends asking for invites to Google+, if anything they would be like "what's Google+?". Half the people I invited don't even use Google+ after the first day, but they are still religiously visiting FB.

ditto

So far Google+ is rather boring. Probably cause I only have 9 people on there and no one is posting anything other then their new profile picture and a test post. Other then that it's been quiet. Meanwhile on Facebook where I have many more "Friends" it's business as usually, same number of post etc.

I'm sure it'll take a long time for Google to catch up, I just don't see most people moving to Google+.

I don't think what you said had any sort of truth. Sofa has been purchased by another company, they are moving because they were bought not because they don't believe in Appsterdam.

LOL that's what I was expecting too.

I'm right there with you. I work for a small VoIP company as a support engineer and even we get decent vacation. Plus we work remotely 60% of the time. I've got it setup right now that ever 12 days of work I have 7 days off. Plus I have sick days and personal days. Which I don't need to use as I can just work from home (unless I'm so sick i can't work).

Mac Protector (another name for Mac Defender) tried to install on my wive's new MacBook Pro the other day when she went to live.com to get the last of her contacts and some emails. She knew not to provide it with permission to install and panic and disaster was adverted.

Mac Defender does look pretty real though and I could see how the uninformed or people that easily panic would give it permission to install. As one second your on the web then a 'window' pops up saying your infected with Virus and to get the latest downloads ect., and it all looks convincingly real.

I don't regret switching to Mac myself as my Mac runs so much smoother then any Windows PC, plus installation of software is a breeze, my MacBook Pro starts up in 15 seconds and it just works right out the box. There was no crapware pre-installed like my old HP laptop.

Additionally, when I researched looking into purchasing my MacBook Pro I saw that Apple does recommend using Anti-virus software and I do have it installed, with no issues and it doesn't slow my MacBook Pro down a bit.

The real 'shitty' thing about HP, and many other Windows laptops isn't even the malware, it's the @#$@# that the manufactures pre-install on these laptops and desktops that they sell. Three years ago my gf and I ordered HP laptops and had to use a program called Crap Remover to get rid of all the Nortan Antivirus junk, the HP software bundled junk and all the preinstalled crapware junk they put on it. After that it ran fine (as fine as Vista got that is) with MSE.

Great app.

Yeah but the gold have been dug for awhile now, plus there are competitors with just as easy access to the market and his is only a little different from the competition.

It would be interesting to see where the money really goes. Cause it's NYC it's sure not to the teachers or for getting the students books. Not that the students would even use the books, and whatever books they get they never return at the end of the year.

That's pretty much what my wife goes through. Her kids have iPhones, Blackberrys, Android phones, (a lot of them are dealers) yet they can't bring a notebook or a pen/pencil, she's got to supply them or nothing would be done. She's teaching 9th grade Biology and Earth Science, yet her students are often 10th, 11th and 12th graders who fail year after year. Some of the 'kids' are 20 years old. 3 of her classes are special ed who's she's suppose to have a special ed co-teacher, but doesn't have one. As well as class size with over 35 students. She's expected to get them all to pass the NY State regents, nothing else matter. One of the biggest problems is students don't show up consistently and class length is only 40 minutes.
