Agreed. This looks like a lot of fun. My company (a traditional swag distributor) is working on an ecommerce site at SwagExpert.com. It's being built using real-time data on almost a million products (including apparel) that comes from an industry provider's API.
I like how this not only provides the product data but a mechanism for manufacturing and fulfillment as well. Very clever.
Good to see you here, Frank. We met a few months ago at SXSW and I rock the shirt you gave me regularly.

"I feel very sorry for teachers when the children who come here start guessing if what they're being taught is wrong."
Without defending the museum, this comment struck me as odd. Especially coming from a scientist. There is no harm in having questions.

I was an Ambrosia super-fan as a kid. Loved reading The Ambrosia Times (helped me discover Arizona Ginseng Iced Tea, the cobalt bottle). Also had a good time doing some beta testing. I hope they can pull out of the rut.

Some of these have websites, but they're either failed projects, projects that never took off or just some crap I put up for fun.

By the time you learn how to code well, someone else will have brought your idea to market with better execution. Stick to what you're good at (business in your case) and hire a programmer to do what he is good at.
I'm not a programmer, but it didn't keep me from releasing Audio Footnote (audiofootnote.com).

a) 1 (Audio Footnote, http://audiofootnote.com)
b) 1 paid, 0 free
c) ~$200 on Google and Facebook ads. Plenty of emailing to blogs. Small email list. A few reviews on app blogs but nothing huge.
d) negligible income, but I am still in the red on development and marketing costs so I would not call it income. Here's hoping something positive happens;-)

The $5,000 number is only hypothetical. No reason why I can't do both.
To Cripple or To Build
I've recently released an iPhone app and am looking towards future development but I'd appreciate the opinion of smart individuals like you.Let's say I have $5,000 to spend on an update to my app. In your opinion, would it be best to cripple the app and release a free (current price is $2.99) "lite" version with an in-app purchase that unlocks all the features? This would be done in hopes that...
