One of these features gives you the ability to add sleep time for its push notifications. This allows you to set a block of time to turn off notifications from Twitter so that you can sleep easy and uninterrupted. Another useful feature is the ability to only receive notifications from people that you follow. Thirdly, have you ever reported a spammer or blocked someone and had to live with the fact that their tweets were still polluting your timeline? http://www.anysim.net Well fret no mo because once you block or spam someone with this new update, their tweets will be automatically removed.

I promise we will continue writing about mac apps! Also, when we say we will spice up the blog a bit with some other mac scene news I can guarantee you it will be original, creative content, and not rehashes of other Apple related memes floating around. What's more there will not be a day that goes by where we don't do at least a couple reviews of an application for mac. This will not change at all. The real reason for this change is that we have plenty of exciting ideas we want to write about that do not fall under the umbrella of an application per say. Our thinking is, if we discover a great way to clean a black macbook, or slice and dice an ipod, why not share it with you guys? So for the most part things won't change that much. We are very keen to keep our existing readers happy with us, so drastic changes with content like you describe, are really not what we had planned. Thanks for reading ;) Great points Sunset, appreciate your comments.

VersionTracker and MacUpdate do nothing but post links to new apps but who cares without a good review? There's a couple spammed comments that are usually meaningless attached to each new post on both VT and MU. This means your competition is monthly magazines like MacWorld, which produce great reviews but only once a freaking month! You guys have the major advantage of being able to review apps frequently, daily even. This is why old media is struggling to keep up with new media in general. I'm here for the application reviews, it's nice to have some people sort through all the crap software out there and pick out the good stuff for us all to use. There's nothing better than some solid reviews from people who are real users. There's plenty of other sites out there with the same old content, look how many TUAW and AppleInsider clones there are, you can read 20 different mac sites and get the exact same news, reworded and claiming it as unique content! Even TUAW has gone down hill recently as they get pushed more and more by Weblogs/AOL to sell ads. Readers notice these changes, readers want good content! Keep it relevant, fresh, and unique, and you'll see how differentiating yourself in this great niche is so important. Just my two cents. :P I understand what you’re saying, and greatly appreciate everyones mac passion here, but I personally think you should stick with Mac Application related content (like the domain name suggests), and here’s why:

There is no reason to not have product reviews. Sure the name is MacAPPER, but who cares. When it comes to product reviews…. bring them on! There is no reason to not have product reviews.

Macapper is only as great as the sum of it's parts, and as our writer base and readership grows so should our subject matter. We will never stray to far from our bread and butter, but writing about more diverse subjects should be a great step forward here. Right on Josh…Growth is a delicate thing to manage.
