Hi all
I know a lot of people on here (and other forums) look for help from techy people when they are wanting a new computer so I wanted to let you know about a web site I've been working that not only compares computer prices but also scores them based on the components they are built with so even though you might not understand the geeky parts you can see the overall rating!
I am looking for some feedback on the site as I doing a small scale launch so any comments / ideas are most welcome.
The site is www.PCchecker.co.uk and is similar in style to my other site (see signature) which some people know on these forums and which compares mobile phone prices.
Cheers in advance

Hi ,
First I'd like to say hello to everybody here. I'm new at this forum (and not a very intelligent one)
I just bought a TyTNII and been reading these forums trying to gather as much info as possible but unfortunately most of it is beyond my intellectual power.
I found people that hate the phone, people that loves it and people that modified/upgraded it to make it more powerful, faster, etc.
I wonder if there is any link (movil phones for Dummies???) where I can learn some stuff since there are a lot of terms that I don't understand.
May be I can ask here some of my questions and some willing soul might spare some time to help...
I intend to use this phone mostly with Skype (through WiFi) but I'd like to get the most out of it.
So, are there any upgrades (Rom or anything else) that I need to do or should I use it as is?
I been reading about all these different roms people post here but to be honest I'm not 100% sure what are they (I guess they are upgrades for windows) but I don't understand why people design these and not the official Microsoft.
Anyway, too many questions at once. If I get any replis to this one I might be encourage to ask again
Thanks,
Fernando
Read this ROM Flashing FAQ To learn more about roms..
Go through the Kaiser Wiki theres a lot of information there.
Thanks, I'll give it a read
Hey guys check this out. Social networking site for gadgets and phones we worked for years is now live. I'd love to hear any feedback so we can improve our site to give you a fun and better experience. Your feedback is very much appreciated either if it is positive or negative.
www.taketake.com
What do you guys think of the site?
Add a forum section for people who need help tips or have problems with their gadgets.. ohh wait, that's what xda is for also, add it to taptalk, I'll try it then
Another thing 'unlocking cool badges after gaining point'- for motivation to get the best one, to make it competetive? Don't think that older people would be intrested, and I am only 16. But you know, everyone has their own 2 pence to add there are more opinions out there.

Sweet site desing man! Looks great! Honestly! I think I'll check it out a bit more now...
Edit: Ok I've had a good look around so I'm ready to offer feedback firstly, the site design if clean and simple! Great! Keep that UI consistent across the whole site and it will be a winner. I'm finding Facebook too cluttered, and this is simple and elegant!
This will really work well as a concept if it takes off, so you need as many users as possible. I'll help out by tipping some of those sites. Other readers here on XDA, if you like the idea, I suggest you do the same This could be really handy when buying new gadgets, and maybe even save all these experience threads on XDA.
It needs re organization and more information but congrats on your efforts

Thanks for the feedback! We did everything to make the UI clean and simple so users will not be confused. Comparing us to Facebook is an honor since Facebook is very established and almost all people around the globe is using it.
Technology is a big trend all over the web. People now a days choose to shop their gadgets online, they can share their experience and reviews through our site.
Thanks for helping us out in spreading the word to promote our site. We really appreciate it. I love the idea and will do the same as you suggested
We'll keep you posted for any development we have based on the feedbacks we are getting. Looking forward on meeting you our site.

Thank you and we really appreciate it. Can you elaborate on the re-organization so we can improve the site. Once the site is on beta you can view more information but for the meantime we are getting feedbacks to improve before we officially launch it. We also have a video you can watch for the overview of the site. We'll keep you posted once the site is on beta.
Hello,
My name is Isaac and I am here to find out what developers and publishers find useful as far as reviews of their mobile applications. I have just finished developing a website that totally caters smartphone applications. It is non-platform specific so if you develop for Iphone, Droid, blackberry, etc.. then your apps could be listed at the site.
What I am looking to get out of this is to find out what information developers want to get from end users the most. This way I can configure the review site so it can get the most useful information to developers. Thus giving developers the info they need to concentrate on what is more important to their target audience.
So I hope some of this interest and lets get talking, what are important questions you like to see answered in reviews
come on guys, help me out, what are things that you found most important when getting reviews of your applications?
If someone reviewed my mobile app, I'd like to know about a couple of things like:
Ease of use,
Functionality,
If usage of app can provide a longterm solution,
and/or if the user was satisfied with the app all around.

Hi,
First of all before developing any application, I check the user requirement. As you know people want different type of applications. So I collect the user opinion from different places. Then I develop an application according to user requirement. After completing the application, I post my application reviews on different mobile based forums and get some feedback.

So basically if you have an idea for an app you then question potential users for what they would like to see and then build something from that?
Any particular questions you post on the forums that you feel gives you best info?
I always look for a decent star rating from those before me and also read through the developer description. If it seems useful I get it and worse case you just end up deleting it later. The main thing that makes an app flourish in the market is it's star rating and number of downloads.
But honestly, there are already several similar sites. I guess it will be really hard for you to build a big user base for your website. Other players are already in the market for a few years. And they are all free...
Maybe it is a better approach that the devs do not have to upload the app to you page but that you just allow the users to "request features" and you can allow them to vote for features. This could provide a feedback to the developer of the most important missing/demanded features. Maybe there is a chance to contact the developers via one of the google apis for marketplace once you have significant feedback from your users for a specific application...

Yes there are many similar sites, mostly concentrating on a particular platform though. Which to me makes no sense since a lot of developers want to make apps for different platforms . But you make a good point allow users to vote on proposed features that the developer is thinking of working on so they know what users really want and would likely buy for.
Hey guys.
I just started a tech support job at a major domain hosting company. I was wondering if anyone knew of an online community/forum for the tech support industry. I can't seem to come across one . This is my first job in this industry and want/need all of the resources I can get to be a well knowledgeable professional who can do nothing but grow. Any and all help would be much appreciated.
Thanks !

I'd highly recommend looking for a site that's part of Stack Exchange. I often use Stack Overflow and it's pretty much invaluable to me as a software developer. I tend to answer more than ask, but it's still nice to know there are people around that know more than me and can help out, especially when it's a new area that I'm working in.
http://stackexchange.com/
Have a root around and see what sites they have available. I don't know exactly what area you're looking for, but a 30 second browse found me this...
http://serverfault.com/
It's a network server forum, so not specific to your needs, but there would certainly be some overlap.
Have a root through. I'm sure you'll find some good sites on there
You know the dark web isn't all that scary, if you know what I mean. The Hidden Wiki gives you some really good advice and information about the dark web, how to access it and is the #1 place to get started. It is where I started out actually, along with many others. It provides you with not an overwhelming amount, but a good list of links you can use to get started. They've actually existed for quite a while now, and is so good that people have started making spin-offs of it (which I don't recommend you visit). They are releasing their new Onion v3.0 link and depreciating the v2.0 link they usually use and I thought I'd share it with you all. The Hidden Wiki is not illegal, trust me; and the dark web isn't all that bad either. Although you might actually find some pretty illegal stuff on it, there are some places worth visiting like the Hidden Wiki. If you haven't already visited it, try it out! You might find some amazing things on there. Also, if you can, try spreading around this link to others who might be interested so that more people can find the v3.0 link.
