Methods, deployment (in terms of location) and data retention are obviously the distinguishing factors here.

The Android Market would be the big loss here. Amazon seems to take more control over the selling of your product than you do once you submit to their Appstore, but if you want to show up on their tablets, you won't have a choice.

Since the first I heard of this (apparent) debate, I wondered why artwork, music, and story were all works of art separately, but the three of them together with a form of interaction by a person was not. The consideration of video games as a form of art doesn't seem like a judgement to me, it seems more like a rationalization.
Found this code using google code search for main.cpp, it is not mine: http://codr.cc/s/1cb504a3/cpp compare with http://code.google.com/p/movement-game/source/browse/trunk/t...

We also collect pictures, videos, comments, and actions you take through the App (“Content”), and information on your location. When our App is active, your Device provides periodic updates to our server of your location, which allows us to show you fresh Content based upon where you are at that moment. We share your Content with others. Sharing Content publicly with others from different locations is what this App is about. If you find this objectionable, please consider not using our App or Site.
It's also available by enabling the "Transit" layer under the "More..." button, and also the transit layer in the Maps application on Android (and presumably the iPhone).
It's an incredibly handy feature when you don't know the area and/or combined with the "Arrive By" option under Public Transit when getting directions.
The post concerns Deal Score, something that was added to SeatGeek which aggregates sale prices of seats over time into a general price range and ranks the current sale price against that combined with it's location. The result is a system that may rank higher priced tickets closer to the action as a better deal than a cheaper price from the last row.
You addressed nothing about the topic, but expressed your distaste for SeatGeek (which I believe you meant when you wrote Deal Score, since that is just a number). SeatGeek has been around for a little while, and it's fine if you don't like them, but you are certainly not evaluating their idea with your comment.

METHOD FOR CREATING A PEER-TO-PEER IMMEDIATE MESSAGING SOLUTION WITHOUT USING AN INSTANT MESSAGING SERVER
X-Preferred-Format: ('Desktop' | 'Mobile')Also, if you can edit your comments, you're opening the door for twisted threads where replies are in one block per person with "@person timestamp," although that's easily fixed by only allowing editing for a short while.
The developers weren't committed to making the game, Microsoft jumped the gun by implicitly saying they were with that icon.
It looks as though prior art existed well before Facebook even existed. I don't think anyone has anything to worry about.
Who says good solutions can't be both low tech and hilarious?
Edit: Additionally, if you really have no return contact, then it's just an attempt to push you over since you can't respond.
(Worth it.)
I understand it's a small website and all, but perhaps a tiny privacy policy would be better?
More thoughts:
It occured to me that a lot of my friends probably don't have unlimited SMS, which is fine, but you might want a way to blacklist a number? Everything is all fun till money gets involved, after all =\
I think the problem is that four undergrads were given a quarter million dollars to compete with the largest website on the internet and people expected anything but disaster.
As much as I love my own real (not internet) privacy, I don't depend on people not knowing where I am. The success of sites such as Foursquare lead me to believe a large amount of people feel the same way.
