The history of the term "lurker" was very interesting to me.
I am an active member of the shoe community NikeTalk, and lurkers are almost a daily subject on that site. Lurkers in a way are actually looked down upon from active community members (not me personally), since they get quick access to helpful information on shoe releases without out having to share anything to help others. If they saw this rule of thumb, it would probably be serious fuel to their fire.
A lot of it is environmental issues. Currently the codebase for the CMS developers is managed by global TFS repos. While the pure HTML templates are done by each local office in SVN repos. Good times.
One of the tricky things for me has been in the handoff from HTML template developers to CMS integration developers. The way we currently have things setup, the developers doing the CMS integration no longer have the ability to make small/quick changes to the main CSS file. It actually has to go back to the HTML developers for the revision, recompile the CSS, then back to the CMS developers.
what are the issues/implications of "just check out the subrepo directly into the superrepo, and rely on .gitignore in the superrepo to keep them seperated"?
Agree, I send millions of Push Notifications via Parse and I am also quite worried. I love their interface and documentation so I really don't want to switch.
Thanks for the explanation. Those are the use cases I was kind of thinking, it just didn't seem 100% clear in the pricing page, especially when my use case would probably just be one or two tokens.
I'm curious how you get an app's keywords? I didn't think that information was public. For example I tried your lookup for my app and it was incorrect.
so i assume the app could be used in a similar method to your previous concept, but with all of the backlash (especially from Facebook) you had to make it seem like you would want to hack yourself?
Agree about the options. When I have "hacked" one of my friends Facebook accounts when they left their phone around, I definitely had different thoughts on what to write. And maybe that is where my disconnect is, I can't imagine wanting to write what I would put on someone else's account as a joke on my own account. The idea is much funnier to me when used on someone else's account (their original idea I guess).
Definitely agree that he knows how to work the SEO. It just strikes me as funny to complain about a competitors app using his app name in their keywords, yet using "Timer :" is basically just using someone else's app name with a seemingly arbitrary character at the end. "Angry Birds :" sounds like a cool game.
The one that immediately comes to mind is Information Architects."
Welp.
