Rate your cell service provider |

Personally, I'm on Sprint. Their quality of service is generally poor, but they are cheap and have unlimited data, so that goes into consideration as well. That said, I'd rate mine 3/5 stars.
How would you rate your cell service provider?

Autotune - love or hate? |

Over the last decade especially, the use of autotune to correct faulty vocals has dramatically increased. Personally, I feel like many singers who don't have a whole lot of control over their voices can certainly compensate outside of autotune, and it is often used a crutch more than a tool. It's usually easy to recongize autotuned vocals as well, making it a poor mask for faulty vocals.
Then again, many styles of music make heavy use of it as a choice of style, so in my opinion it depends on whether it is being used as a crutch or a tool. What's your opinion? Be sure to vote in the poll!

This game is pretty simple. Each post simply adds four words to the story. I'll get us started.
It's a lovely afternoon...

[software development] File exchange software |

I'm currently about 2,500-3,000 lines of code into my file exchange software. It is designed to be a system for gaming sites, mod databases, etc... where files can be uploaded, each with their own page, images, download counts, file ratings, and comment systems.
What's finished so far
* Development/codebase framework
* File downloads and uploads
* Each upload has its own page
* Each upload has an image
* User registration and login systems
* Category management system
* ACP framework
* User management panel
What's in progress
* File ratings
* File comments
* Full moderation system
What's left to do
* Add approval system for uploads.
* Build a nice theme
* Add better file size and type management controls
* Allow more images per upload.
* Theme comments system
* Test and debug
* Anti spambot features
I still consider the work pre-alpha, largely due to the terrible theming work. I plan on finishing a few more things, then releasing screenshots and pushing updates in the future.
EDIT: A significant amount of coding has been completed since this original post. Scroll down to see the newer development updates.
Looking for the code? Check this post for the latest proof-of-concept release.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND. - IndiePort, a newly established software firm based in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA, announced they will be starting a software download portal exclusively for independent software, announced Tuesday. The market will be called IndiePort Market and will have a mid-strict publishing application policy.
The policy consists of whether the software has any inappropriate content, and if the whole family could use the software or if it's only appropriate for teenagers. While the company is a Christian company, the Market will have only software that is considered "appropriate" for either the whole family, while keeping a Christian view in the review, or if it's suitable only for teenagers and older.
Each publisher will only have to pay a minimal amount of their sales to IndiePort, which will start at 20% or lower. Payment for software bought off the Market will be PayPal-only at launch with credit card processing through Google Wallet will come soon.
Beta testing sign-ups for the service will be taken starting June 8th.
