  • CBS All Access, Showtime streaming services each hold 1 million users

    I am so freakin' unimaginably psyched for this new Star Trek TV series!! *almost* psyched enough to consider a CBS All Access subscription. Otherwise, I'm not sure how I'd legally get my hands on this show.

    I now have a deep and personal understanding of the value of exclusive content to a network/service. When you love something so much that you would do anything to get your hands on it, that is an incredibly powerful lure to sign up for a service.

  • Why Alphabet's Nest doesn't (and probably won't ever) support Apple's HomeKit

    I agree that this totally stinks. I have a Nest, and I do like it. But I really resent the fact that I'll never be able to use it with the rest of the Homekit ecosystem.

    This is the worst example of tribalism that leads to a crappy experience all around. I also got some smart light bulbs for christmas, and they too are not homekit enabled. I don't want to be ungrateful, I appreciate receiving a gift. But it just sucks hard that my "smart" home devices are not integrated with my smartphone platform of choice: iPhone.

  • App Store shuffle brings long-awaited speed boost for developers

    We just witnessed this change for real. Posted a new version of our app Quetzal POS at 6pm est on Tuesday, it was reviewed and ready for release by noon the following day. Less than 24 turn around. 

    We thought it was a fluke. I love the idea that this going to be the new norm!! Means we can push out bug fixes in a day. Yay!
