#132In process of incorporating an LLC with a businesss partner; our first project will deal with web widgets...should be live (selling from day 1) by the end of the summer.
Fun recent project was a thing I threw together "in a weekend" to make finding things from nearby cities on craigslist easier. Prototype at: http://didyoucry.com/clshop/
And re-roofing a section of my house. (Oh the pain of having to use muscles for "real work" after years of cubicle dwelling.)

Think B2B, for example. The iPhone (and the others - Android, Palm, Blackberry), combined with the app store model provide two things: 1) users effectively get a handheld computer which always has internet access, and 2) developers get much more access to these mobile devices than carriers have traditionally allowed. Pick an industry - what does this allow them to do that they couldn't before? (ideally, something tha…
Sorry for the newb question, but are you saying that ANY app developed for the iPhone (including a custom app for a client) must go through the App Store before being installed on their phones? I'm asking because we have a web-based intranet app that we could create an iPhone-based version of, but it's only useful to the client. So, there's no reason to put in on the App Store. But it sounds like you're saying all ap…
You can also physically install the app yourself from your development machine if you get their device (again, there might be a limit on the number of devices, since you have to register each one).
As rdouble mentioned, there's also the enterprise program.
And, of course, there are jailbroken devices with third party app "stores". I don't have much experience with these, but jailbroken iPhones are supposed to make up a significant percentage of users - might not be as useful for business use, though.

If you like any of the shirts, I made a coupon for HN readers: http://www.shirtstastegood.com/coupons/lXgcYWo4XEQ9fVAq
Love the shirts. Wish you the best of luck. How about taking it one step further, and giving viral video content creators an affiliate cut in the shirt profits. With Store front widgets, that could be placed anywhere. Transitioning into a platform. We do sketch comedy, and I could see us using a service like that.

Wow, awesome to hear there are other people into lighting on here. I'm spending my weekend working on a Max/MSP patch that spits out patterns onto an LED grid controlled by a 4/4 time signature. I plan to tie these patterns to music clips within Ableton once Max for Live comes out later this year. The idea is to have layered patterns corresponding to my layered music clips (minimal techno) during my dj performances.
I think you may have just signed up to beta test... something. We'll see what it turns in to. When I'm not coding for money, I'm a lighting designer - mostly live concerts, but I do some club stuff as well. I've found the options in that market very unsatisfactory. There are some good options starting in the $4000 range and up, but they all require a trained LD. The average DJ is unlikely to be willing to deal with t…

#137I quit my job a month ago for my second crack at bootstrapping a business: http://www.shirtstastegood.com I'm in nyc and I would love to hear any feedback! Thanks.
Great idea, good artwork! Minor amateur opinion: the artwork seems too large on the shirts / too overstated.

We are working on a viral video incentive program right now!! The store front widget is a great idea, we did not think of that. Do you mean place the video embed and accompanying t-shirt into a widget to be included on blogs etc? That way the content creator has an easy way to spread the t-shirts as well because they get a cut of each sale! Thank you so much for the input!! I love it!
