Not very impressive (who knew selling a niche tool in an environment where $5 is considered "expensive" wasn't the road to instant riches?), but it has been fun to make and it is always cool to hear about how useful the tool has been to fellow developers.
- jacques_chester 14y agoDon't sell it to developers. Sell it to their bosses.
- suresk 14y agoGenerally speaking, I agree with you. In this case, however, this was just a weekend project and easy distribution was a goal of mine - hence the app store. If I were trying to make a full-time living off something like this, then there are a bunch of things I'd do differently - such as what you suggest.
- jacques_chester 14y agoAh, OK. It's actually good you've thought it through. "Sell to the boss" is one of those little revelations I've had lately and, like any Damascene conversion, I'm being a bit of loudmouth about it.
- phil 14y agoThat's kind of a strange attitude to have. Your competition (more or less) charges $50: http://www.charlesproxy.com/ http://www.charlesproxy.com/
