For all of you that are belittling Cooking Capsules (hope I got the name right), why don't you take a good look at the winning list.
1) Very few applications do not have clones on the list. 2) A lot of the applications on there are existing ideas ported to Android. In my opinion cooking capsules is a good choice for multiple reasons: 1) It ties together several different tasks to make them simpler and easier to organize. 2) It is actually unique on the winning list. 3) The overarching goal of the ADC is to help sell phones, and cooking capsules appeals to a different segment of the population. To make Android very successful it has to have applications for non techies. For the sake of full disclosure, I like to cook, but I hate shopping. But, there is nothing more I hate than coming back from the store to realize I forgot to buy something on the recipe. I also like trying out new recipes. Being able to use my phone while in the store to both figure out what I want to make and to check off the ingredients would be great. Finn P.S. Ask yourself if you would have had the same problems with ADC had the judges realized how super cool your app was and you had won. Perhaps your application was not good or hard to test, you knew this was a content by non-technical judges so you should have prepared for it. D.S.
