iPhone apps S/D

Mail?

Because Mailbox is owned by Dropbox

yeah mail

mail suxxx

that's what i use. but then again i'm crazy and use @me for my email. i have a gmail account but it just sits there. if i were still on gmail i'd use google's gmail app

please don't tell me you're all on fantastical too

and cobook or whatever

the last post on sparrow's blog is their acquistion post

let's take bets whether or not this will be another posterous sitch where they keep it around for a bit until they don't

then again i think friendfeed is still up

http://friendfeed.com

wonder what the future of the mailbox gmail relationship is

fantastical is pretty good!

my most used iPhone apps are:
- Chrome
- Twitterrific
- Pocket
- facebook
- Zing
- Scratch
- KitCam
- Kindle
- Mailbox

oh yeah, and Fantastical and Google Maps

you aren't using Apple's new Maps, are you

well i just have an ipad, not an iphone, so the navigation component isn't a big deal to me right now. when i mess around with maps on the device though, it's apple maps.

when i borrowed a family member's iphone to get somewhere i think i used apple maps though. lol

my most used iPhone apps are:
- Chrome
- Twitterrific
- Pocket
- facebook
- Zing
- Scratch
- KitCam
- Kindle
- Mailbox

safari, twitter, instapaper, facebook, safari, huh, camera i guess, kindle and ibooks, mail

i also use the other icloud stuff like notes, reminders, and calendar

guess which podcasts app i use

YOU'RE RIGHT

scanner pro for "scanning"

instapaper is good but really datefd

I mean, there are apps that do that shit better now. Check out Pocket!

for whatever reason i've never used pocket. i'm a marco fan though.

honestly markers, some people who like to blog are good software developers but that's not really a good correlation

how often do you run into problems with pocket?

i'd also be interested in hearing why you think instapaper is dated

it's true that it seems like he's not devoting much time to improving it now that he's got the magazine. the last major revision was fall 2011

pleco, skritter, evernote, mail (ugh), zing, riposte, tweetbot, foursquare, patter, reeder, icab, pocket weather, google, google maps

instapaper is about to get a major update (and new app, therefore new fee)

where did you see that?

marco

i follow him on twitter, read his blog, and listen to his podcast, and i hadn't heard that

but good news, so thank you for letting me know

pocket has a good default view (really nice on iPad), seems to have better html/article parsing, and does better with images. not tagging as much, but I've liked the flow of it.

at some point i may need to check it out. thank you.

I actually used passbook for real flights lately! It's still only marginally useful though

xps i'm pretty sure he mentioned it on his blog but i can't find it

let's pray that it eventually takes off

he said he's got a load of ideas he's building into the new instapaper, and that he'll be charging again because of that. it's not on his blog so assuming it was an interview. annoyed i can't find the bloody thing.

thank you for looking though.

Pocket is awesome. So is Omnifocus.

Flipboard is pretty great.

Someone explain to me why Path is so great.

can't

also, the UI on Path is overrated. That wheel sucks.

Path is the epitome of an app that exists simply because it can, i.e. there were a bunch of sucker investors involved.

no one actually uses Path

acquisition target

sort of acquisition that would either spell the end of the app or its being changed into something different perhaps

but yeah what mh said

"acquihire", another bad joke perpetuated by the SV press/VC industrial complex.

It has no business model and only 5mm "users". Ergo, it is a platform for serving ads on an app where you're supposed to have a less polluted newsfeed.

In other douchebag founder related news, Dennis Crowley wears his twitter handle on his race number.
