For those who might be interested I am going to give a promo code good for a free download of “Meat Clock” (the original Meat Clock for iPhone and iPod Touch) to the first 5 people who use the contact form on this site to request it.  Please, only one request per person!

This is a great opportunity to share the love if you already own Meat Clock and would like to “re-gift” it to someone special.

In the event that you request a free code and the 5 person limit has already been reached, I suggest you include in your message an interesting or juicy story that might get you some sympathy, and possibly a free code…

(boy, this iPhone development stuff is just like playing God!)

Not your typical iPhone developer

I just read an interesting story  over at Macworld about iPhone developer ‘Molinker’ posting fraudulent 5-star reviews for its apps.  I didn’t know that they have over 1,000 apps in the App Store.  With their apps removed from the store, perhaps shopping for an app won’t feel so much like trying to navigate the shopping mall the weekend before Christmas!  All for the best, I suppose.  Maybe Meat Clock will finally catch on with the masses.  Did you know that Meat Clock makes the perfect gift for your friends and family?  Well, it does.

Brownstone Pizzeria iPhone App, Quick-dial screen

This just in… APPROVED: iPizza: Brownstone Pizzeria – Eagle Rock, CA. This one is targeted to the local small business.  In this case, I’ve created an app for Brownstone Pizzeria in Eagle Rock, CA.  This place has delicious thin-crust pizza and the owners are really great.

The Brownstone Pizzeria App was an excercise in creating an app that could be easily translated to work for other pizza places, restaurants, or any business that might want to give away a free app to their customers, offering them a chance to tap into any daily specials that will keep them coming back for more (and more often).  And the easy quick-dial button makes phone in orders a breeze.

I could see making an app like this for anyone interested.  In fact, if you are interested you can contact me here.

INSIGHT – Mind Shocker

Update…

Call & Win has been rejected by Apple.  No explanation.  I did, however, get a call from an Apple app checker.  We had a nice conversation on the issues that might cause rejection (this was before it was rejected officially).  The two important issues that came up for this app were:

-You can’t make an app that deals with contests and prizes.  Even though this app doesn’t really fall under that situation, it did sell itself as a contest winning tool of sorts.

-They can reject an app that doesn’t offer any unique functionality.  Basically, they don’t want the app store filled up with “Hello World” apps.  I can understand that.

I plan on reworking this app to make it a little more functional and sell it more as a productivity/time-saver app.  That is, if I get around to it since I’m now working on a unique game that parents will love because it should keep kids quite…

This app has been submitted and is currently waiting for approval from Apple.  Expect it to be available in the App Store around July 21.

Want to win those tickets to the Hollywood Bowl?  There’s an app for that!

Call & Win – Quick Dial KCRW is an easy to use ‘quick dialer’ that brings those awesome ticket giveaways and prizes within your reach.  Now you are only 2 clicks away from your chance to win.  Try putting Call & Win on your iPhone’s home screen and you won’t have to waste precious seconds flipping screens. If you don’t get through, you are automatically given the chance to redial.  It couldn’t be easier to dial the contest line over and over again. Good luck and make sure you have your KCRW membership number ready!

Hang on everybody!

Apple reports 46% earnings increase…

Hey, don’t I get some credit for this?

Well, at least 1,000. That’s right. According to my record keeping, Slider Calc , the slickest iPhone mortgage calculator in the app store, is a worldwide smash hit with just about 1,000 happy customers out there. Keep on sliding those numbers around, people. Add to that the sleeper hit of 2009, a little app called “Meat Clock”, which has sold well into the dozens and now we are rolling in cash! Easy street, here I come.  If you read stories like this one about Steve Demeter or the story about iShoot developer Ethan Nicholas who claims to have maid $250,000 in two months, it is easy to see that I should have about 2 million downloads by Christmas.  I better start preparing for the amazing lifestyle changes that are coming my way!

Me, on top of the world riding iPhone riches into the sunset!
