Wondering what your options are for funding your app idea? What about monetizing it? From various funding models to the most common monetization strategies, the Guide to Funding & Monetizing Your App has the answers you're looking for.
I barely had time for Found Friday this week; it’s been bananas around the Paper Leaf offices these days! However, I still managed to find the following killer items & articles out there on the ol’ interweb this week: an erasable Sharpie that turns permanent after a few days, an amazing music video that uses hilariously bad stock video footage (intentionally), 25 cool Google logos, an article on integrating social media into your website as well as an article with 20+ great new web apps for designers/developers. Read on!
Sharpie
This “liquid pencil”, as it’s being billed, is awesome. You can write & erase it, but after 3 days it turns permanent like a regular Sharpie. Key ingredient: magic.
Ratatat Music Video
Not only is this song great, the video is too. The gents from Ratatat decided to create a whole music video using only (hilariously bad) stock video footage. It’s uncomfortable yet hilarious to watch. Like the Office.
25 Most Creative Google National Logos
Google has very few rules for their logo use; in this post, you can see how their designers went to town when making nationally themed Google logos. Interesting stuff; not always good, but interesting nonetheless.
How to Integrate Social Media into Your Website
Social media is the new black! You don’t have social media integrated into your website yet, you say? Well, put down the price sheet for your Yellow Pages ad, Grandpa, read this article, and get with the now.
20+ New Apps & Websites for Designers
This is a must-read article over on WebDesignerDepot. I’m sure you’ve seen some of the items in it, but I bet you haven’t seen ’em all – and you don’t want to miss something game-changing, right? Personally, I’m digging CloudApp.
See you next week!
