so? how does this affect your product?
>Facebook changes its newsfeed algorithm with significant implications for marketing agencies and small businesses. Facebook replaces its complete Android SDK with a new API
yeah, that sucks.
>Apple releases a completely new programming language.
so? you don't have to use it.
>Apple releases new versions of iOS and OS X.
if your app works on Mavericks, it works on Yosemite. if it works on iOS7, it works on iOS8
>Google brings Android to TV and your wrist.
You don't have to integrate with it.
>They release a brand-new Android version.
same comment as the apple OS releases
>A new cross-platform design language.
You don't have to use it. Your product already has a design, and a brand. consistency is important. Your users are probably even more afraid of change than you are. Don't inflict google's new design on them unless they're begging for it.
>They replace the Android VM.
your app probably already works with it. most do.
>Notifications change how they work.
no they didn't. they added new features, but your old notifications still work like they did yesterday.
>This. And that. And this. And that.
Build your product, make it as good as it can be, and build what your customers are actually asking for. Stop caring about all that crap the tech blogs are posting, and focus on what your customers are asking for. You don't have to react to everything that theverge reports on, 90% of it goes away after a couple months or has a similarly small effect on the industry.
