Apple Updates App Store Guidelines With Enforced Rules Against Low-Effort Apps
Within the App Store Guidelines support page, Apple urges developers not to "submit apps that are indistinguishable from what's already widely available."
Google+ iPhone App Submitted to the App Store
For those on the Google+ bandwagon, you’ll be pleased to know the official iPhone app has been submitted to the App Store for approval. Google employee Erica Joy sent out the following update, as reported by Mashable:
the Google+ iPhone app has been submitted to the App store (no not today, sometime prior to today) and is awaiting approval.
Currently, Google+ for iOS devices can only be accessed via their web app, which offers a sub-par experience. This new social network from Google is seen by many as a viable competitor to Facebook. I’ve been testing it out for a few days, and the concept of Circles is actually a brilliant idea. I look forward to this iPhone app hitting the App Store!
How do you like Google+ so far? Currently, the ability to ‘invite’ is at a limited capacity. Stay tuned as this will go public soon.

This reminds me of Gmail back in it’s infancy, when you had to get an invite to get in.Â
I love G+, so much better then FB, of which I’ve never been much of a fan. Found you on G+, Gary, but you haven’t posted anything. I’ve been on since last Wednesday, and have already made new connections with people that I wasn’t connected with before (through twitter, FB, etc.). I would like to see a stand-alone desktop app for G+, like tweetdeck.Â

Hi Holly, I’ve also added you to my G+. Can you see my posts? There should
be a few there 😉
Yup, it’s a great way to follow people and the organization via Circles is
just brilliant. I’m wondering if Facebook will introduce a similar feature
soon.

That Sucks….. I wanted G+ but no invites either…Â
Maybe by the time the app goes live it will be available for everyone… (hopefully soon)
