My idea of beautiful is a bit different than this.
4 comments

Officially adding "beautiful" to the words and phrases that make me shudder:

- beautiful

- ninja

- rockstar

- web 2.0

- social-mobile-local

- ajaxified

- "I have an idea for an iphone app"

- gamification

- hyper-local

I better not tell you about my beautiful ajaxified hyper-local social-mobile ninja game then.
I absolutely agree with rockstar. I cringe when people use that word to describe programmers or designers
Also the "x" button on the top left adheres to absolutely no conventions or expectations.
This is convenient, but I don't know about beautiful.
It's not convenient, because you have to use this entire Parse thing (and pay for it).

The headline is bullshit click-bait.

You will have to pay for any server back-end, but the pricing is very favorable and they have a really nice free plan as well.
Fine, but the headline is still bullshit.
I agree abou the headline, I don't think you could call the design beautiful.
So is everyone else's. What's your point?
