In GBA 315 we get better acquainted with Andy. Since Andy works in very similar areas of audio to me, but has a very different approach to how he works, this is a compare and contrast conversation where we talk about why bassists might have an affinity for radio production, making radio and podcast comedy and drama, working with a foot in independent audio and a foot within the mainstream radio world, what it's like when you're locked in the audio cave and whether we are pond-skaters, water-boatmen or ducks!

In this Weeks Show, Justin and Andy ponder the safety of Connecting to hotel Wi-Fi. There are certain points to consider before connecting to any Wi-Fi Hotspot. Justin shares some tools for safety when connecting to Wi-Fi. A Discussion over the announcement of the seperation of Disney from the Netflix streaming platform. When will this take place and is this good for consumers? Since Andy watches a lot of TLC and Hallmark, Justin ask if Andy watch's with A pint of ice cream and a box of tissues. With the Idea of Media Companies launching thier own streaming services, the downsides are discussed which include trying to find programming you want to watch. A Solution that Justin recommends is Reelgood.com. A Startup Aggregator for finding services with Media Content. Have you found a Kickstarter or Indie GoGo Campaign you have wanted to Support? There can be benefits from kicking in however nothing is guaranteed in form of returns. Justin has kicked in on a Smart Watch called the Tic Watch 2 for Android and explains some of the great points of the watch and some rough points of Crowd Funding.

Since Andy was out celebrating being married for the last 7 years, take a trip down memory lane with the random topics from episodes 423 through 437.

00:00:00 - Most of this week is dedicated to our interview with author Andy Weir, author of The Martian. The free-wheeling discussion includes how Andy tackled the science of the book, what the reception has been like (including getting a little movie about it made), and what's coming up next. We finish up our discussion with Andy's favorite cocktail: a rum old-fashioned made with either Ron Zacapa or Ron Abuelo, two very fine choices not available on Mars anytime soon, whether there's water there or not.   Miscellaneous things you might want links to: Follow Andy on Twitter Check out The Martian subreddit  The xkcd comic about how we really feel Actual astronauts doing videos like the ones the movie made for viral marketing   01:14:14 - Since Andy brought it up, it only makes sense to complete the thought. Joe knocks it into orbit with his kumquat flavored Martian Soda. Ryan has a Track #8 from The Lost Abbey, which has an overly complicated connection to the subject matter at hand.   01:17:23 - PaleoPOWs are a lot like being stranded on Mars; it's one thing to complete the mission, it's another to survive the journey. Joe has a new recurring donation from Robert S-carrot, which is a letter we're still not sure how to pronouncing and we're not sure we even want to know. Thanks Robert! Ryan reads three iTunes reviews, the first being of the dreaded 1-star variety from GBarkimer and is reminiscent of a 1-star review of a National Park, of which there are many. The other two reviews from ridebutterflies and Weapon alpha that are more positive so we can end the show on a high now. The show is now ended. Goodbye.     Thanks for listening and be sure to check out the Brachiolope Media Network for more great science podcasts!     Music for this week's show: Life On Mars - Seu Jorge

Bad stuff happens! There is no way around that. It’s a fact; your apps, out there in the wild on consumers devices, will crash. This in itself is ok but only if you can get the information about those crashes and use that information to fix the bugs that cause them. The Windows Phone platform actually captures stack traces and provides those to you, the publisher of the app. You can get a view of the number of crashes that are happening as well as download an Excel file with all the appropriate information and stack traces. This is a good thing and you should take advantage of that information as it may give you some good clues as to what to fix to make your app a higher quality product.There are a few things that App Hub does not give you though. The first thing is that it may not give you enough information about the bugs that you are hitting. One example of that is that the version number of the app is not provided so if you have published a few different versions of your app it is possible that a user is hitting a bug that you may have already fixed in a later version. The other issue is that stats on App Hub are delayed. As a result you don’t see the issues that your end-users are hitting for a few days. If something is happening out there that is causing a lot of crashes then you may not see it until after users start posting lots of low ratings and negative reviews. Another thing to keep in mind is that App Hub does not provide any sort of notification of issues. It’s up to you to visit App Hub regularly and pull down those stack traces to see what’s going on. Finally (and I realize this is more a perception thing than an issue) end-users have no idea that the platform is gathering up those stack traces and making them available to you. And, of course, they have no idea if you are looking at those traces and working on bug fixes. As a result, when they see a bug most will assume the worst and give bad ratings and reviews. As I’ve mentioned on a previous post you really want to make sure that, whenever you can, you provide the ability for the end-user to provide you feedback as that helps build a relationship which ultimately will result in higher ratings and ranking.Fortunately there is a way to get around all of these issues. Andy Pennell, a colleague on the Windows Phone dev team has posted some sample code which he dubbed Little Watson that I think every developer should include in all their apps. Just like “Big” Watson does on Windows, that code does exactly what you would expect in that it captures all that stack trace info (including additional info you may need) and allows the end user to email it you so you can get to work fixing whatever bug caused the error.Little Watson is pretty easy to use. There are a few steps that you need to do:The first is to include the LittleWatson.cs in your project Then you need to let Little Watson know every time an exception happens. When you do that Little Watson captures the trace info to isolated storage. This is done by calling LittleWatson.ReportException. You’ll need to do that in both RootFrame_NavigationFailed and Application_UnhandledException. Both of those are in App.xaml.cs Finally to allow the end user to send you the stack trace you’ll need to add a call to LittleWatson.CheckForPreviousException() in the constructor for your main page (i.e. whatever page it is that your app launches into, usually that is MainPage.xaml.cs). When you make that call Little Watson checks for an exception report file in isolated storage and if one exists prompts the end user to send it to you via email. Since Andy blogged about Little Watson, other devs have grabbed that great idea and taken it further. One example of that is the Northern Lights open source project. Northern Lights has many different capabilities that are useful to Windows Phone developers. One of those is an implementation of Little Watson based on the work I mentioned above from Andy Pennell. One thing that Northern Lights does beyond Andy’s code is that they provide you the capability to automatically send the trace info to a web service behind the scenes so that the end user does not have to see it. You should probably be careful in doing something like that. As I mentioned above, it might actually be a good thing for end-users to know that you care about bugs. You may also want to be careful about sending stuff to a web service behind the users back. Some users will get freaked out about that if they notice. This would be especially bad if you were including any sort of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) along with those traces. In general, you’ll probably want to let users know somehow that you are doing that and definitely stay away from capturing any PII.On my blog I’ve included the source code for the project I used in the video. It’s a ridiculously dumb app but I often get asked for source so I’m including it for completeness. Let me know what you think about this episode of Top Ranked.If you have questions about any of the videos, about problems or issues you’re hitting or if you have topics that you think would be of interest to other devs on the Windows Phone platform then drop me a note. I’d be particularly interested in hearing about some of the best practices you’ve adopted that you think have raised your quality or your ratings/ranking in the Marketplace. I’ll be sure to give full credit and link love whenever I can.The Top Ranked series is hosted on Channel 9. You can view all the past videos there.
