The Mac App Store
I like it. I was a little disappointed that there weren’t more apps that I wanted on day one, but I really dig how this thing works.
I’m really jazzed about the idea of having all of my app updates coming from one place instead of having to discover an update when I launch the app. Not a huge deal, but still pretty cool.
I didn’t get carried away with buying apps. Most of what I wanted (Things, Billings 3, MarsEdit, iLife ‘11, etc) I already owned. I did pick up The Incident and it’s just as fun on the desktop as it is on the iPad/iPhone.
It sucks that I’m hearing that apps I already own that happen to be in the App Store won’t be updatable through said App Store. I’m sure there will be a solution to that in the near future, but for now, it’s kind of a bummer.
I was also hoping for some MobileMe integration. For example, if I get on a different computer, will it be able to just pull down my downloads? If so, that could be a great feature.
I also picked up Twitter for Mac / Tweetie 2… like the rest of the Mac-owning world did, today.
All in all, I’m sure it will be a success for new and old Mac users, alike.
