Neil Gaiman – Where he gets his ideas

Neil Gaiman, one of the most creative writer who writes stuff out of nowhere, explains how he gets his ideas..

In the post, he said everyone has some good ideas. Some people will approach him with the idea and ask him to write for them, and split the money 50-50..

I'm reasonably gracious with these people. I tell them, truly, that I have far too many ideas for things as it is, and far too little time. And I wish them the best of luck.

Developers are akin to authors.

I too, keep a long list of ideas.

Reasons why I love iPhone

My very own reasons why I love the iPhone.

  • Without a FM radio, it still plays online radio stations
  • It shows live traffic, integrated with Maps
  • Syncing with Mac is seamless. No worries on contacts, calendar, bookmarks and mp3
  • Developing apps for iPhone gives me a sense of satisfaction
  • There is an app for everything
  • Apps are well developed and very usable
  • The best soft keyboard
  • Well organized phone settings
  • There are many great games, nearly like a handheld console
  • It's makes me concentrate on one task at a time
  • It's responsive
  • It's simple
