...This time in the form of Android and Chorme OS.
I'm just glad it's for Chorme OS and not Chrome OS...
Would you take your frozen pizza to a store and pay $30 for someone to put it in the microwave for 5 minutes for you? That's about the level of effort required here.
extremely well put, wish I had mod points for you.

It's like arguing that your company is broke because it has too many assets.
First of all, what I said (the US having a much higher population than Norway) is nothing like that, and are you really arguing that you think Norway would hold a $55,000 GDP/capita if they had as much land and as many people as the US? It's not a problem of more resources, it's a problem of scaling. Are you saying you think it's equally challenging for a government to manage 3.7 million sqm of real estate as it is for a government to manage 125,000? Or 300 million people as opposed to 5? You think a government fit for one task is equally fit for the other?
Let me give you a nice company analogy... That's like saying a company in charge of running a business with one corner office in Bumsville, Idaho and 12 employees would be equally fit to run a company with 1,000 employees and an office in every US state. It's just not that simple.
Skype’s client does not offer many of the new iOS4 features that Fring is quick to jump on, namely video calling, background operation, and even push notifications which have been around for a long time. One could argue that Fring’s client allows Skype users to use these features with Skype, which is something that users want. Skype is notoriously slow at adopting new features such as these, and is also slow at their geographical expansion. You still cannot get a Canadian Skype-In number, but there are a host of Canadian VOIP services offering phone numbers for example.
Basically, sounds like the vanilla Skype client is not ready to adopt this technology on their iPhone apps, but Fring already has, using Skype's API. This makes Skype's devs look bad, obviously, if a third party's app is surpassing their native app on their native API. Sounds like a lot of code-dick measuring as far as I'm concerned. Unfortunately, Skype still wins if Fring violated any licensing agreements (which it seems like Skype is implying)
For client X, when loading Y, error message is displayed: "The dinosaur says RAWR!"
While this is amusing it is not the expected behavior.
Ya, it's not harmful but it was a little embarrassing. It must be really embarrassing for a web developer at a company which is so publicly visible. I feel this particular developer's pain.
