(I work for TM) SeatGeek has a wonderful product but I feel we're positioned in the market a lot better because of the access to a large number of primary tickets. We can uniquely do some things (like giving fans early access to onsale

What was missing in the WWDC announcements when the Spotlight improvements were discussed was web search. Apple will probably want to acquire DDG and cut itself off of Google completely adding it's own web search to Spotlight and Siri.

I've been using iOS7 since Beta 2, and I still hate it. I don't like the look, but this might be personal. So putting this aside, to me iOS7 is actually harder to use. The flat buttons (which are just labels now) are harder to pre

font-weight is indeed the main problem, but regardless I hate this new trend of not making text black. What would a bookmarklet look like to set the body color to black?

The on-screen keyboard reminds me of the good ol' days of ZX Spectrum (each key had a command assigned to it, you typically wouldn't type the commands but press the corresponding button) http://zxspectrum48.i-demo.pl/zx-spectrum_keyboard.j

No, but I do scroll the page up, so that the line I'm reading aligns with the top of the browser viewing area. Some sites nowadays add a floating header to the top of the page that changes size as you scroll down which is super distracting

Compare to google: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&tbm=shop&q=ipod&... Equally bad results in my opinion. I guess they are lazy greedy slobs too.

I don't work at Amazon but worked at one of the largest comparison shopping sites in a core search group. Sorting by price is hard - if you really wanted to do a true price sort you end up with the long tail of products that match the term

You pretty much have to do the same thing - release code using new models before migrating the db. Django tends to spell out all columns in its SQL statements, so when you delete one from the db, but fail to upgrade the code you will run in

I am guessing there are some access right restrictions to the API and they haven't added anything like OAuth yet. That's why they need to proxy for it (hunch based on the use of word api-internal in the post). Another reason might simply be

I noticed the new address book has entries for phonetic first/last names (use the Add Field). I assume those are used by Siri (just like the Related People fields) and would solve your name problem.
