Hi All,
I thought I’d share an anecdote. After open sourcing Easy Inventory a couple of weeks ago, I figured ad views would slowly die out as more folks downloaded the code, forked the project, made improvements etc etc. On the contrary, AdMob impressions for Easy Inventory have more than doubled in the past two weeks. I’ve always been one to share code as much as possible, but I never would have thought that releasing the code to a project would increase the viewership for the ad-supported version. Will this trend continue long term? Should I open source all my projects? Should I move from SourceForge to Github? Would folks be interested in the source to any of the games I released?
These are interested questions I’ll be wrestling with.
I’d actually like to see you apply to be a nookcolor developer and port some of your apps to the nookcolor. doesn’t seem like it’d be much to do other than making sure that you don’t use api for things the nook doesn’t have and set a price for it in the market as ads in apps for the nookcolor really don’t work that well.
Oh and write that sliderule app i want too
Hey RK,
Yeah I think that’s a good idea. I’m also debating getting some apps on the Kindle Fire too
I’ll see if I can get on that sliderule when I’m off vacation later in the week 
/Best!
/H
This is really nice. I wonder whether I can get some apps on the Kindle Fire?
I hear the amazon android market will be available on the fire, that’s probably the best bet.
