"+1" seems like a neutral enough option that endorses the sentiment of the post, without ascribing an emotion to it.

Except Google+ is already using it.

We saw this coming when they announced that they were acquired by PayPal a couple of months ago, and read this line:

"When asked if StackMob will continue to operate as normal, he said it was too early to tell since the acquisition just closed today." http://venturebeat.com/2013/12/17/paypal-acquires-stackmob-t...

That was dead giveaway that they'd shut it down. We instead chose Parse for a project we were just starting, and it's worked out pretty well (except for the bugs they've been having the past week which don't allow us to create new columns or deploy).

T-Mobile simply doesn't have any data coverage outside of major metropolitan areas. If you're someone that travels outside these areas, you will be unable to use your devices for anything but calls and texts.

That's a big caveat that should be mentioned.

(If you never leave the Bay Area, for example, then T-Mobile is a logical choice. It works well for me 98% of the time here.)

At the end of the article they pitch an Android phone they made that's "based on the design of the next iPhone"

So that's about how much you can trust the legitimacy of these pictures

Swiping from the edge of the screen is not always easy with a protective case on your phone, as it impedes your ability to do so. Pretty annoying problem that I haven't seen that considered in many places.

I don't think that's true. Some of these apps use elements from the Holo UI themes that are distinctly Android, and still look beautiful.
