That is not a fundamental issue of the apps. It's a flaw of app management. The core of my analogy remains unchallenged. Besides, there is an app for that: http://lifehacker.com/5645850/apps-uninstall-bulk-removes-an...



Well if that's the extent of your analogy it's completely flawed. In your analogy someone has misused the bookmark feature to save too many. In my response - I point out it's a pain to remove apps. In future, sure maybe somebody will make app managers on par with web browser bookmarking features. Bookmarking a site is not a prerequisite for using a website, whereas installing an app is.

To point to yet another crummy app that performs extremely basic functionality that should probably be part of the os, is not really a sterling defense of the app model.
