WindowsPhone isnt cool..

[mildldie]

I really don't see Pheed taking off anyway. Why would someone want to pay to get content from celebrities, when that stuff is available on Facebook and Twitter free of charge?

Of course you can use Facebook or Twitter. Why do you want Pheed? Windows phones are good but sometimes.......

Paywalls aren't working out very well for news media. I doubt if they will work out any better for social media.

Isn't the NYT doing reasonably okay with theirs? Nothing ground-breaking, but hints at viability at the least.

No, they are still operating at a huge net loss. It's less of a loss than it was, but its still a big loss.

iOS is boring now, it needs customization changes if they want more marketshare.

I've had countless experiences of people showing interest in my Lumia 920 i pull it out of my pocket. Usually they say something like "Wow, is that the new Nokia? May I see it?" Nobody did that with my iPhone.

And you should reply "P stands for Poop."

LOL, when I first joined Twitter, people were like "WTF is a twitter!" I don't think pheed will take off, but it does go to show what devs think of WP OS.

They're in a bit of trouble now. They've spent the last several days backpedaling and saying "no, Windows isn't uncool, we're developing for it."

I'd expect their Twitter feed is operated by some hipster kid who has used Macs ever since he graduated from middle school eight years ago. I wouldn't get too offended by it.

Windows of all kinds are very cool, epitomized by CEO Steve Ballmer:

If this doesn't inspire strong faith in WP8 for you, then I just don't know what will, friend. :grin:

(hopefully you can see this on "metrotube")

Pheed is a bunch of phony phailures.

I wonder how they found out about orginal response on twitter? Its my guess a few people from her tweeted them about there "not cool" comment.

He nearly gave himself a heart attack and died, I'm nearly dying of laughter. That's just GENIUS! My respect for that guy just skyrocketed. Because it takes a certain kind of CEO to do something as crazy and off-the-wall as that!

thats the reply I got from the Pheed people when I messaged them saying Pheed would be cooler if it were available on WP as well.

thats isnt new for me because I often ask if a dev will have a certain app for WP. They say the cool factor isnt there.

Well the same thing was said about the first Xbox... then the Xbox 360 came out.
