Android Market passes the 50,000 apps milestone
Let us play the Android Market’s overbearing Aunt for a minute as we pinch it’s cheeks and tell it how big it has grown since we last saw it and dig in our purse for a quarter as we pet it’s head. Though Apple is still top dog when it comes to its App Store, the Android Market is also growing at a very rapid pace. The latest reports say that the Android Market has crossed the 50,000 app mark, which is about a week after Google confirmed the 38,000 app mark. 50,000 is still a way off from the App Store’s official 185,000, but at the rate it’s going, it’ll provide Apple with some healthy competition in no time. Great news for Android. [Electronista]

Re: proof that "unlimited data" on the iphone does have LIMITS
This argument keeps getting revived about twice a year, and it always gets beaten to the glue factory. These same people also argue that for $30 a month they should be able to tether an unlimited amount, use their phones as wi-fi hotspots to power all the Internet in their house, and have free unlimited international data roaming. Guess what? Certain apps have restrictions. You can't download something that's over 10MB from the App Store, and certain apps won't work over 3G. If you don't want your experience limited in any way, find a carrier with no restrictions. I'm guessing you'll be back soon.

Dear, Google: Please don’t be as silly as Apple on Market policies
You’ve probably heard by now that Apple has removed more than 5,000 iPhone apps from the App Store because they were “overtly sexual.” Apple used an illogical and contradictory method of deciding what qualifies as overtly sexual, including removing an app that sells swimsuits through a catalog but keeping the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, FHM, and

Apple: Enjoy Your iPhone, Prudes! Android: Party On!
One man’s loss is another man’s gain, and in the case of two contrasting Application Store ideologies, the iPhone App Store and Android Market each have their fair share of ups and downs. Whereas Android offers a free market where consumers decide what is good and bad, right and wrong – Apple has gone the protective route, ensuring the App Store offerings meet a certain standard of quality and morals, defined by them. But what happens when the rules “defined by them” are RIDICULOUSLY more prude than the rules that would be defined by anyone else? Easy: 5,000 applications get removed from the App Store because Apple’s executive team seems to be stuck in an alternate universe where America in the 1950s meets a Catholic convent meets the unfortunate cultural demands of women in (some) Middle Eastern countries. It all started when an app called Wobble iBoobs was pulled from the App Store. The application allows you to take an image, mark the boobs and shake your phone to watch them wobble-wobble, shake-it shake-it (and jiggle jiggle). It was on the App Store long enough to make $300,000 yet was pulled, and their creators sent an EMail that contained the following ominous sign: We have decided to remove any overtly sexual content from the App Store, which includes your application. There were at least 4,999 other apps/games with overtly sexual content, all of which were removed today. Peeved, the Wobble iBoobs team contacted Apple and got the following response in terms of the new “guidelines” – republished from MobileCrunch with Marc Flores comments in parenthesis: No images of women in bikinis (Ice skating tights are not OK either) No images of men in bikinis! (I didn’t ask about Ice Skating tights for men) No skin (he seriously said this) (I asked if a Burqa was OK, and the Apple guy got angry) No silhouettes that indicate that Wobble can be used for wobbling boobs (yes – I am serious, we have to remove the silhouette in this pic) No sexual connotations or innuendo: boobs, babes, booty, sex – all banned Nothing that can be sexually arousing!! (I doubt many people could get aroused with the pic above but those puritanical guys at Apple must get off on pretty mundane things to find Wobble “overtly sexual!) No apps will be approved that in any way imply sexual content (not sure how Playboy is still in the store, but …) Stay here and enjoy your iPhones little kids – Daddy Android will be in the next room hanging out with the other big boys and girls. Don’t worry: one day you’ll be able to swim in the deep end, jump off the high diving board, ride your bike without training wheels, and wipe your own butt too! When you get an Android Phone that is… How do you feel about the level of censorship going on in the iPhone App Store? How much should Google tolerate in the Android Market or should it be 100% free and open as long as it isn’t racist, pervert and derogatory? And by the way… why does Apple pull content from the App Store yet allow music/audio/video with ANY type of language, titles and content into iTunes? Consistency Apple… consistency.
