A friend put together a mix CD of alt-country tracks for me (retro, I know). I used the Music Brainz audio recognition software to try to auto-tag the files, to save me typing up his handwritten tracklisting. Needless to say, the above is slightly incorrect.
Probably to make way for the introduction of Facebook credits to be used by third party developers. Facebook made $40m~ year from virtual gifts, but I guess they think that pales in comparison to the likely income from social games and 3rd party gift stores.
Such 3rd party apps will likely be benefited (more users, keener investors) by one of their biggest competitors leaving the market, and more profit for them is more profit for Facebook in the long run.
I love the copy describing this guitar pedal. Better than the usual “you too can be a god of rawwwk” nonsense that often accompanies such items.
“Congratulations. You must be insane. Even I don’t get how to use this pedal”.
I love Stack’s indie magazine subscription model. Are there any businesses doing similar with other products? eg. I know there are wine of the month clubs, but how about for more esoteric/geeky goods?
If programming languages were tools.
The only programming language I’ve ever been able to really do anything with was Visual Basic…and I definitely used it like a toddler flinging pudding at a wall with a plastic spoon.
