There are other services such as Zip Car and Car2Go that work very well for running errands. I live downtown Denver and sold my car nearly a year ago, haven't looked back since. There are times I rely on friends to go to the mountains and such, but for the most part I'm just fine without a car.

Zipcar is fail because you pay as long as the car is away from its original "home" parking spot. Why can't I drive it to another Zipcar spot in front of the mall? For example instead of paying just for the 15 minutes it takes to drive there, I have to pay for the drive time plus the time it sits in the parking lot for 3 hours while I shop. Fifty dollars, no thanks.

Ahhh gotta love that never-ending list of apps to build.

I know, this one's buried in the list.

I love the Forecast.io integration, by far the most beautifully done weather app out there.

My father made the hop from iPhones to the Galaxy S5 recently. He couldn't love the phone more, but also had this same iMessage debacle. It just made him dislike Apple even more, they were awful at resolving the problem, and just left a sour taste in his mouth.

My guess is because you can't even BUY a Tesla in Texas. Why would they set up a $5B factory in a state where they can't even sell a car? http://www.teslamotors.com/advocacy_texas

EDIT: Amongst other reasons of course, just a guess on one factor. Hard to say it's business friendly when they've banned the company from doing business there.

My thought exactly. Don't just pick a place business friendly. Pick a place that is friendly to your business.

I used it for a few weeks until I had a good sense of my average daily activity. After that I turned it off due to the battery drain as well. It wasn't a horrendous drag on battery life, but enough that it wasn't worth using when daily stats didn't change much.

Nobody bought Dropbox.. In fact Dropbox purchased Loom last week. I haven't seen news about Facebook buying anyone since Oculus.

They haven't been acquired but I think quite a few people were upset at the news Dropbox had decided to appoint Condoleezza Rice, the former secretary of state, to the company's board of directors.

Which was more likely a PR stunt for an upcoming IPO, but I digress.

In this day and age, I feel being 'smart' is much more about your ability to find and apply information than it is about memorization.

Do you not see the big 'A' at the start? 'At its Build 2014 conference' makes sense.

Nevertheless it's hard not to notice that the first word appears to be "tits". Is there a typesetting term for that, like keming?

"kerning"... but (meta) if you read it in an improperly kerned font it probably looking like "keming"

epic.

Great write-up. From a user perspective, grid feeds like Flipboard look great, but I find them a bit less friendly. I'll lose my spot, have a hard time finding the other article I wanted to read, and am generally just a bit more frustrated. I always go back to linear feeds in the end.
