Part of the problem is a lot of IT talent is more interested in building the latest social networking gizmo than solving Detroit IT problems.

Relying on App Store reviewers for feedback is a bad idea. The whole process is capricious. It's likely had he submitted at a different time and gotten a different reviewer, the ap…

They are quick to respond up until the point where you've paid. But, their interest drops off pretty steeply after that point. Thanks, you just saved me 2k. Please write up a blog …

Revenge never works.
