Good job! The goal is here is to keep pushing yourself. What will happen is that the next app will build on the skills you learn in the current app and so on. Once you finish your first app, I'd look into some open source projects and see h

A VPS or Dedicated server might fit your needs. I'd also look into Linode.

The app looks nice! :) Have you checked out DuoLingo? Seems to be running on a similar but slightly different idea.

I think this quote by the founder explains it all. >We have been dealing with doubters for 10 years. One of the problems we have is that the machine does look a little primitive. We are working on a new model that has flashing lights Th

I agree. > Android has leapt ahead of Apple Apples to Oranges (pun not intended). Android is no longer a company and Apple is not a operating system.

I've got to say, that's a cunning business model. Give away the addicting product. Sell the (temporary) antidote.

It's a cool idea with a few players in the field. Did a quick check on a WP Blog and the application sandbox keeps crashing. I only have two concerns. You are entirely at the mercy of Apple with this product. There isn't too much customiza

You can wrap WPTouch into a native app with a little bit of work. The selling point for this service that there is little to no effort for anyone involved to get the native app submitted and with support for push notifications.

He's using a Native App. If you are looking for a free plugin to get a mobile feel you should use WPTouch.

Yes. This is probably the biggest mistake that people make as newcomers to the app store. If you believe that your app is worth $X, you should be charging $X.

Both Angry Birds and Cut the Rope are now on HTML5 ( http://chrome.angrybirds.com/ ) This is starting to become a trend, but it needs a strong driver. The Windows 8 App Store may provide the push needed to get HTML5 adoption up for applicat

A good start would to get App Review sites to review your applications. It depends on the category of the app, so if you don't mind me asking, what type of app is it?

I've always thought that personal marketing/hawking of apps doesn't do much to drive sales. The best marketing you can get is through reviews and word of mouth. In my mind, that money is better spent on improving the product.

This is incredible storytelling and is very humanist. I'd really recommend listening to it. We use these devices everyday and don't even think about it. Here's an article from Gizmodo about an undercover journalist: http://gizmodo.com/5542

It seems that developers have to take the backseat unless they want to miss out on the ride. A lot of Apple's thinking can be explained through the eyes of the user. As a user I'd hate for apps to continually bill me unless I expect it (whi

If you do it right, then yes it will help your reviews. I suggest actually using iRate ( https://github.com/nicklockwood/iRate ) The advantage of these libraries is that you can ask at a specific time, say the tenth launch.
