Does everyone seriously think the cost will remain the same?
What happens when a company/brand goes belly up and the TLD is auctioned off?
Most of us don't trust ICANN as far as we can throw, this move is just point in case, the restrictions will loosen .

Amen, 'free advertisement on /. '

Bur-qua porn?

Aye. Hour north of here, only thing I've heard on the news for 2 months now.

It's a legitimate idea. Video games will go the way of the DVD as well and be streamed over the internet. Business models will need to adapt.

$45,000 for the implementation, and $39,955,000 in management bonuses.

The way they obfuscate and "minify" it, it might as well be in binary.

So what they have a ton of usr@% grants on an open-to-the-world server? No vpn? jesus ....

atypical ?

The concepts are virtually the same -- ok, exactly the same -- but the syntax of Objective-C, namely "message passing", took me some getting used to.

According to another post "He made between $2.25 and $4.50 per copy".

Which basically means that the $135,110 would be ~2-4 TIMES that.

Well let's see... He claims $9000 in income. He's selling it for $12.99 on amazon.com (Let's assume $10/copy, I dont know what amazon's cut is)

If he sold 1 per 446, and made ~$9000 at ~$10/copy: ~900 were sold.

~401,400 were downloaded (Unique)?

Iet's say the fact that he charged $0.99 for the ebook version, sales would have been lower, I think 66% LOWER is a pretty conservative number:

~401,400 - (~401,400*0.66) = ~136476 'sold' ebooks.

~136476 * 0.99 = ~$135,110

Yea. prolly screwed himself :P

Interesting way things are going. Internet companies are slowly forcing us to host everything we "own" in the "cloud", while ISP's are slowly enforcing usage caps. At some point we won't have enough bandwidth to bandwidth to access anything.

I remember installing Chrome when it first came out and them almost immediately uninstalling it. Either it or Symantec EP had a bug, and the browser window would immediately crash. 9 versions later... these guys have made an absolutely incredible product. I simply don't know what I'd do without my bookmark sync. Their app store needs some work, though, right now it's more of a bookmark store.

"though it declines to give any actual figures. Users have, it claims, also complained of missing functionality, a lack of usability and poor interoperability." riiight. Move along?
