It's a shame because a site about sharing letters from interesting people in history will attract experts, and they will have fascinating things to say. Yet they are not heard because of all the flamebaiting and trollfeeding.
You must know who their users and their needs, but not necessarily BE a user.

I wouldn't use a marketing company unless they specialized in app promotion. Apps are such a weird, new and nontraditional medium. I think we generally look at optimizing in two places: within the app market (soliciting ratings, reviews, keywords, titles, screenshots, and volume of downloads) and outside the app market. Since we have no clue how internals work, its probably better to spend time on external marketing.

Some basics that all devs should get down:

- a hit list of blogs that target your audience, pitch to them and get coverage

- submit to app review sites

- start building an email newsletter (integrate mailchimp into your app)

- if possible, cross promote through someone else's newsletter

- have a landing page + centralized FB page. Try to build up "Likes" so you can communicate with users in the future.

I absolutely love mine. Love it. Had one for about 2 years and it fits like no other chair I've tried. Only problem is that I have to remember to keep a towel on it when I'm not here because one of our cats loves it. That's unnecessary hassle for what is essentially a work tool, but if I didn't the seat would be clawed up within months.
I use Skeleton on my blog.

You're worried that it's missing some features? Skeleton has no features. It's a grid, some typography, and some defaults. On the other hand, Bootstrap is a complete front-end package. They're very different. Look at Bootstrap's js bundle alone.

Skeleton is nice when you just want some sensible defaults with your responsive grid.
Wooden patterns
Competition in an application space is good. Even in games. Look at how many tower defense or match-3 games there are. If you can make a better one, I'll play it.

Case in point, Zynga's "Words With Friends". It is the best version of online Scrabble I've played.

(Apparently it was developed by Newtoy and acquired by Zynga. And in my humble opinion, Zynga's "improvements" over the past year have had nothing to do with "evolving high quality", but are fairly blatant attempts to wrangle cash and facebook information out of me. But that's another story.)

However if you make a feature-by-feature copy of GemCraft, I'm not going to think much of you. And that seems to be what Zynga did here. They didn't build a better mousetrap, they build the exact same mousetrap and used their market position to grift Nimblebit's success.

My most successful product has been a magazine (and let me define that success: very successful in terms of contacts it's given me, unsuccessful financially). The "build process" for that has been neither elegant nor free of mountains of schlepping.

Really? The botnet testing site idea does not seem clueless --- it would require ISP co-operation and they urge ISP co-operation. There are privacy implications of such a service, true, but this is the stuff of politics.

For some reason I always used to find the login process to Notes really disturbing - the way you typed your password and for each key you pressed multiple hieroglyphics would appear.

Of course, then there were all of the input controls - which seem to have been designed to behave like no other input controls before or since....

Terrorism is a military tactic, saying "you are a terrorist" is about as meaningless as saying: "You are a right flank", "You are a military operation" and "You are a deployed F16 bomber". It's this double speak and new-think that is damaging our country, not the demand for basic human rights.

Is IBM really serious about the office productivity space? There doesn't seem to be any buzz around their desktop offering, Lotus Symphony. [1]

When I last tried it, Symphony was slow and clunky to use, and miles behind LibreOffice (!) in usability.

Or is there some uber-visionary long-term play going on here? I certainly don't see it.

>> Or are you saying that they never should have made Ctrl-Alt-Del do anything else but starting the task manager?

That's what I'm saying. Not that they shouldn't have made it do anything else per se. But that by doing so, the other features caused a negative effect on the main feature.

Ctrl-Alt-Del didn't have anything to do with logon or accounts or security, just task manager. Winlogon stuff should have had a different shortcut altogether, maybe Win-Alt-Del.

Interesting.

I'd tend to think that it's because Backbone is agnostic about your backend, and agnostic about your UI. That tends to leave a lot of the big pieces up to you...

That said, I like your premise. If you have more concrete thoughts about what "re-positioned and turned into a full-blown client-side framework, with more control flow inversion' ... would mean in practice, please open a ticket and describe your ideas for discussion.
There's a very common misunderstanding among normal users that websites can't really look different for different users. Facebook has corrected that a bit, users now know that features might be rolled out in stages, but they still cling to the misunderstanding that if someone has a feature, they will get it eventually.

And hence this article: Zuckerberg has extra features, therefore everyone will get these extra features. It's pure speculation. A more likely explanation is that he has a special version with a lot more controls that are relevant to him.
In that case, couldn't Ctrl-Alt-Del try first in the current context, and in failing recur to the winlogon context?
Any chance that someone throws away all layers we have at this moment so there will be no abstractions on top of other abstractions ?

IBM is in the process of removing the Lotus brand from everything. This 'Greenhouse' is a test bed for the "Lotus" community and hasn't gone through the rebranding yet.

I'm sure that when they release this properly it won't have the dreaded L-word anywhere near it.

This has been a long-running saga within the IBM/Lotus community for years now. It's obviously a toxic brand, but it's taken them a while to start clearing it out. I think they're still working out how to brand the next version of Lotus Notes.

(Yes, Lotus Notes is still widely used. Reluctant Notes/Domino admin here).

This is part of a wider collaboration strategy from IBM.

As well as Notes, they have a "Connections" platform which is a combination of document sharing, facebook-style profiles and a few other things for internal corporate intranets. From the demos I've seen it's relatively nice, as enterprise software goes.
From last month's "Lotusphere" conference it sounds like they're adding document editing to this, and aiming to move everything (including email) to an integrate web-based system. I think they're selling it as either onsite or hosted.

Edit: Sorry for how corporate that sounds. I guess that's just how my mind goes when I start thinking about IBM software!
That is assuming we use facebook. I don't use facebook.

That said, this is somewhat interesting to me for 2 closely related reasons:

1) I like to know how the "big boys" think and it's entertaining to see the moves they make competitively.

2) Since the "big boys" are so influential, the moves they make could in turn affect my business decisions in the near future.

That's only because people are widely "stuck with it". I've not seen a single organisation in the last 10 years that has done a new deployment. It's always been hanging on by a thread, usually along with some Netware and occasionally DEC estate and some serious 10base2 mileage. "We'll fix it one day" etc.
That's a navigable interface, not a discoverable one. This is one of the key differences between a hypermedia style interface and a traditional directory service. Navigable interfaces tend to be easier for people to find what they are looking for, but for automated service discovery, a directory service is far more straight forward.
> That gives me the urge to display suspicious behaviour just to make them lose time.

I suspect that if you deliberately acted suspicious enough to make them lose time, you'd lose a not insignificant amount of time as well.

And this is the sort of thinking that the "suspicion detection" powers-that-be quite possibly want to encourage - where personal convenience trumps a [imho, perfectly natural] desire for privacy.

what is it about ?
random memory - one of my earlier jobs in my career was working with lotus notes to develop custom mods of some notes-based package we were reselling. On Windows 95. With 16megs of memory. I think I finagled a 32meg system eventually for some testing/dev, but everything then had to be vetted on the 16meg systems we were shipping out. What an insanely slow nightmare to work with that was.

From all accounts, Notes had/has some interesting ideas re: doc management, but I could never see past the slowness to appreciate what, if anything, Notes was ever really good at.

From what I understand it's a replacement for X.Org also providing compositing and such things. It tries to provide a clean codebase without being quite a monolithic as X.Org is right now.

It's currently quite immature, you can only really use demo apps on it, and while gtk and such have been ported I know of no real window managers that support it.

I looked at migrating when we did our last e-mail server upgrade, but the cost of moving to Exchange vs upgrading Notes just wasn't worth it. The latest version isn't so bad for general groupware type stuff.

For a new deployment I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole though.
X is certainly overdue for replacement, and I can easily believe that the price it paid for high cross platform portability has exceeded the benefits.

However, relying as much on Linux specific features as the article describes strikes me as a step too far in the other direction. Are the benefits from these kernel specific features really awesome enough to outweigh the benefits of being portable to at least, say, the *BSDs, and maybe Mac OS X and Solaris?

Linux does not have a huge desktop presence. It has, of course, a huge cell phone presence, but Android does not seem likely to adopt a new window system.
