Yeah, I notice in the Apple App Store that the iOS version is quite highly rated. I don’t get it, but then again I’m no journalist.

Print journalists still use the AP stylebook every day, including many magazines, which, incidentally, have seen a growth in advertising of late. It’s true that there are essentially no accepted standardized style rules for online journalism, but most serious journalists still need some kind of guide on how to handle tricky spellings and usages. But you are certainly channeling the majority of today’s bloggers in sneering at the very idea of style rules.
