Open Letter to Apple. Please Ban "Angry Birds"
Dear Apple Computer Inc.,
I am writing this letter to ask you to ban the sale and download of the application Angry Birds and Angry Birds HD in the Apple iTunes App Store. (see image below)
I have personally experienced and witnessed severe levels of addiction to this game, resulting in countless hours of counterproductive bird catapulting and smashing activity.
As a large corporation you have a responsibility to limit applications that enter the App Store, like Angry Birds, that can be harmful to society. It’s not responsible to be selling a product like this and think that people will become more productive members of society. You and Rovio Mobile Ltd, need to think about the impact this game has had on the Apple community and the 6.5M people that abuse Angry Birds.
Here are some of the irreversible affects your game has had on myself and others:
-Extreme euphoria and pleasure upon ejecting black, yellow, purple, green and red birds into the sky only to watch them ultimately obliterate green monsters; Extreme bouts of depression and anxiety if latter does not occur after 10-15 catapulting attempts;
-Repeated hallucinations of yellow triangular birds accelerating mid-flight and then smashing into wood planks, concrete barriers, or ice blocks at incredible speeds;
-Delegating important routine personal activities (eating lunch, shaving, brushing teeth, wishing my mom happy birthday) to spend more time playing Angry Birds;
-Feelings of euphoria and lack of judgment (sometimes disorientation) when Black-Bomb, Toucan-Slingshot, and Obese-Red Birds were unlocked for the first time;
-Evidence that Angry Birds on iPhone serves as a gateway drug to Angry Birds HD on iPad; Upon HD’s release on iPad for $9.99 {market value}, I have experienced a much more powerful reaction and resolution to the game. Its far higher quality with more addictive features…resulting in a more expensive high with twice the counter-productivity baked in;
With all this counterproductive bird catapulting and smashing; I feel its time to make a responsible decision and stop the madness.
A recovering Angry Birds player,
-Andrew

Check out MisoTrendy… a fun foursquare application I built over a few weekends with Rakshith from Init Labs.
MisoTrendy answers the question “What bars and restaurants are popular right now.”
MisoTrendy allows you to visualize real-time trending locations via Google maps API + Foursquare API. Think of it as a real-time steam of the most popular restaurants+bars+venues in your area.
Why did we make this?—->mostly for fun… but also because the foursquare app only pulls 2 trending locations at a given time based on your physical location. We wanted the ability to see all popular locations, either at home or on-the-go (and who doesn’t want to follow the crowd).
MisoTrendy works on desktop or mobile. Go ahead and check it out.

OLD SCHOOL MAC vs. PC
“Im a Mac….and Im PC” was a marketing concept conjured up back in 1996.
Except in 1996, Justin Long sports a “Seinfeld-haircut”, a denim shirt, a Newton MessagePad with Nokia 100 cell phone.
This is truly a gem. I’m thinking of blowing it up to hang in our office.

“How’s this for scary? This white blanket on the water is made up of tiny dead fish. This is 20 miles from the mouth of mobile bay. Sickening. I am sure this is just the beginning of what we will see.
I am guessing this is from the toxic dispersant.”

Clay Christensen’s Milkshake Theory
Great article on Clay Christensen’s Milkshake Theory. Major point taken from the article is that entrepreneurs should understand the “job” the customer wants done and build a product that properly fulfills that need. The most successful companies (including Swiffer!) have followed this simple concept. Avoid the “feature-creep” and just make the best tool for the job.
Food for thought for any entrepreneurs (me included) who have suffered from complusive-target-market-researchitis.

I use my macbook widgets to keep track of the 12+ hours (China) and 14+ hours (Aussie).
To put it in perspective, when I am having a late-afternoon snack on Wednesday in New York, these guys are getting a bowl of fruit loops and reading the paper on Thursday. :)

Google Gravity = You Have To Try This
Step #1: Wait until your friend steps away from their computer
Step #2: Insert the above link and set as homepage on their browser
Step #3: Watch and laugh as your friend attempts to search Google
Step #4: (optional) Tell your friend that Google servers were hacked by the Chinese Government and that this is how they have to search Google for the remainder of the day {insert evil laugh here}
