    To be fair, they spent a lot of time, beside the main Genome project, to build and try out interfaces to showcase artworks, which has always suffered a poor UX. It was in closed be…

    Simple and great service! I read it every morning. I know it's critical to keep it simple and easy to read, though I'd love to have the weather forecast for the day as well.

    All of this reading is great, and I mean it. I've read a lot of it. But one thing bothers me: the time spent reading is precious if you're an entrepreneur. It should not take over …

    Obviously a low price with thousands downloads is way better than a higher price with only hundreds of purchases. $2.99 * 5000 > $10 * 500 Time will tell but I'm pretty sure this i…
