OpenClip framework brings cross-application copy/paste to iPhone (17)
on TechCrunch (4788) permalinkIt’s a shame, really. A team of developers have partnered to finally bring a legitimate copy and paste solution to the iPhone - one that can actually move data between different applications (previous solutions could only shuffle data within the same app). But as great as it is to see a team of developers work together to overcome one of the iPhone’s shortcomings, it probably won’t see much use. A few weeks ago, Proximi released ...Shared by AJ (693) Alec Peden (131) billrod (7) Brit (54) Colide81 (43) DOCBook Howto (330) Enoch (18) Javier (12) Jay (50) Jeffrey (40) John Magnus (146) lezionidistile (17) Peppermint (36) rreynoso (26) Tim (114) Tim Millwood (11) zemlanin (117)Contribute comment

Apple Is Flailing Badly At The Edges (43)
on TechCrunch (4788) permalinkMy first computer, purchased by my parents after nearly a year of begging, was an Apple II+. That was 1982. I was a Windows user for the next 20 years, but went back to Mac when they switched to Intel chips a couple of years ago. Since then I’ve bought seven Macs for myself, as well as at least one of every iPod and both iPhones. A lot of these were test devices that I’ve ...Shared by Aaron (78) AdamB (20) Adrian Bacon (103) Andrew (62) Andrew Ruess (329) b r a n d o n m c c a l l (32) Ben (346) Bishma (31) Bonstio (10) Brent (98) Brian (42) Chrigu (18) Chris C (20) Chuck LeDuc (23) Convoluted (82) Dan McCall (43) dobata (757) Dreamside (336) Earl E Morningwood (102) Eszter (14) Eugene (92) FelipeC (39) G Code (237) giginger (88) IanTW (25) Jawad Shuaib (18) Jeffrey (40) Jess (15) Joe (152) John Magnus (146) Jonathan (74) JonMoss-theappleofmyi (209) Kevin (26) louisgray (465) Mike F (1570) Oudi Antebi (76) Paul (51) Rutger Blom (84) sarahintampa (364) Thomas (6) TIGGR (72) Tony (69) Vasanth (7)
- Bishma said: This seems to be a growing concern out there. I have to wonder if Apple has too many pokers in the firer.
- Chrigu said: Das sind ja mehr Probleme als ich mit Vista habe ;)
- Eugene said: A bit hyperbolic, at least from my experience. And Apple does a decent job at making their customers happy. But yes, I hope Apple improves on their out-of-the-gate release issues.

Redesigning For A Reason: Towards Better Conversion Rates (16)
on TechCrunch (4788) permalinkMint, an online personal finance site, has gotten a facelift. The new site sports a much cleaner design than the previous iteration, and appears to be focused on describing what Mint actually does rather than presenting pretty (but somewhat overwhelming) graphics. That normally isn’t big news, but what caught my attention is that Mint has been bucket testing various redesign formats with some users and is seeing conversion rates increase by 20% over the current ...Shared by AaronTN (116) AdamB (20) Andrei (13) cfohlin (5) Convoluted (82) Dan McCall (43) David (25) evo (45) GP (82) infomaniac (31) Jake (13) Jeffrey (40) John (4) kevan (21) Mr. Matt (27) Oudi Antebi (76)

I Don’t Understand Y Combinator Hate (15)
on TechCrunch (4788) permalinkThe vast majority of entrepreneurs I’ve spoken with who’ve been funded by seed stage VC/incubator Y Combinator are happy that they took the investment. And the ones that applied but weren’t selected generally have nothing bad to say, either. So I continue to be surprised to see journalists write stories that suggest that the deal Y Combinator offers to entrepreneurs is somehow unfair. Unless they find a significant number of entrepreneurs who back up the ...Shared by AJ (693) Andrew Terry (63) Denny (17) DrBaher (49) Eric (3) evo (45) guopai (8) Jeffrey (40) Luke G (60) Ryan (66) Sigalon (37) stratus (22) Tim (114) Unseen (42) Xavier (5)Contribute comment

Manage Webapp Upload Addresses with Gmail Filters [Email Filters] (23)
on Lifehacker (6610) permalinkLots of webapps—Flickr, Tumblr, and Remember the Milk, among them—let you upload items through custom email addresses.
