On side note, she uses Instagram instead of Flickr. Looks like Flickr needs to step up. Would be fun to see if she says to Flickr team, "I won't use your app unless you improve it"
Since the Flickr team didn't write it, I'm sure they would be glad to hear it.
EDIT: Changed Yahoo to Flickr.

Really? Flickr didn't believe in native apps? Or they didn't have enough iOS devs? EDIT: Changed Yahoo to Flickr.

It's always been that way. Remember the Windows 95 and Windows NT startup screens? Take this for instance: http://www.guidebookgallery.org/screenshots/winnt40 In particular: http://www.guidebookgallery.org/pics/gui/startupshutdown/spl... It wasn't uncommon for Microsoft to have their name mentioned 4 or 5 times on a single screen, alongside copyright symbols, trademarks, and other crap.
those screenshots were enhanced with adobe(r) photoshop(tm) software.

How does apple get away without this? Curious if anyone knows
Very small type at the bottom of their ads. Despite what people think, you are not required to stick a trademark sigil right next to your mark. I have been having this argument with people for nearly 20 years, and don't blame the lawyers so much as the managers who won't take the time and effort to actually think about what the lawyers are telling them.
The correct answer to the objection of "but Instagram is better right now" is "I'm going to revitalize this product by using it for my own photos and commentary, even if it sucks right now."
You don't want the CEO of a company giving mindshare to a competitor!

Native apps were owned by the mobile group, not the individual teams. And they didn't get have the people to do it. I'm sure Marissa will rectify it.
Seeing all of the (TM)s and (R)s has always annoyed me. When I look at it I always feel an undercurrent that it represents everything stereotypically oppressive about a corporation. Is there some legal reason for placing them up there (requirement to protect the trademark in this way, a CYA, or some other reason), or are they just up there for show?
Owning a federal trademark registration provides a number of advantages, including... the ability to use the federal registration symbol.
Much like the copyright symbol, unnecessary.
