On all my previous blogs (of which <a href="http://www.ps3blog.net/" rel="nofollow">PS3Blog.net</a> is the one that's still running) I made sure to have a contact page. I don't know why I forgot this time around. Thanks for pointing that out - fixed! Ah, sorry about that.

Especially when you have your own blog. And one way to start talking to those people is to at least provide one way to contact you on your blog!

Doing what? I think that it's big point, though, is fair. Everytime I tell someone that I develop iPhone apps, they tell me I should make a word game that shoots tanks or something. Having the idea is not the limiting factor here... something about the iPhone turns everyone into little mini product managers. It's getting it done that counts. So I guess I could see why 125/hr could happen, if you can prove you've got the stuff to make it work. But... who needs it? Ideas are everywhere in this market right now, because its so new and exciting. I think, worse case scenario, if you can't think of anything worth making... find someone with a good idea, that's willing to work with you. I don't see a lot of benefit in sharing the profits with a partner who says what he wants, then makes you do the rest. Now if they were willing to pay you for your effort, regardless of the success of the app... that's a different story.. :) I had the same response reading that article that you did… 125/hr where?
