    IMHO, the main difference would be in the "marketing points," in the sense that they'll attract different kind of people. While technically it's possible for castAR to do what Ocul…

    8tracks.com boiled down to single tag? Feedback: the player panel, instead having tabs for Now Playing / Queue, why not move the tabs below the player buttons, and have Comments / …

    From screenshot, I think digg reader is more minimal (minimaler?) than this.

    Stopped using reader since Flipboard. But after the death of Reader, I find myself using Digg reader instead of Flipboard. I love that popularity dots . So I guess I'm glad Google …

    Thank you, great list and kudos to those who produce the screencasts. But man, screencasts will date fast. I learned a lot from [Node Tuts]( http://nodetuts.com/ ), like how to use…

    I think part of iOS 7 task is to create buzz. And it's doing it successfully (with hundreds of votes and comments on this and Marco Arment's thread). The last few iOS iteration, fo…

    I guess ultimately, Marco's just a good guy. Under him The Magazine as a product probably would stagnate like Instapaper did. Then he would have sold it anyway. And, advisory role …

    Another vote for convenience. As others here, I've bought games I haven't played and I can't recall any digitally purchased games that I never played. Even though in this particula…

    Cute. Not something I'd ever use, but cute. Overall it works, but it seems it can't pick up the word "one" and "reviews". Or it's me who can't speak those words right. Kept getting…

    This is a super confusing move from Microsoft. First, don't they want indie game developers to jump to Windows phones and tablets? I'd presume Microsoft could (if not already) let …
