I currently have about 4 or 5 ideas for new apps or updates to my existing apps. I just need to find the time to implement these updates.
I may try to see if I can port my existing apps to Android and possibly Blackberry. I have a solid Java background and porting these may not be too difficult. I still need to investigate this though.
I may also look into making some iPad specific applications. But I would like to get an iPad for development purposes. I did the same thing with an iPhone (among other reasons) and an iPod Touch and that was worked out well.
Some large freelance iPhone and web development opportunities may be coming up soon. So, I really need to get to work. I’ve had discussions with several people about developing iPhone apps for them. I’m not sure where this will go yet, it may be a great opportunity for me. Plus there is always the constant possibility of freelance web development.
With all of this potential work, I need to get cracking on my own ideas. With luck, I can deliver one or two of these apps/updates before any outside work comes in. And if the work falls through, I will have gotten my updates out and may make some more money.
The traffic to my software site (http://software.ryangrier.com) has been on a steady increase. I think that this also coincides with slight increase in my iPhone app sales.
I often wonder how I can get more development time into the day (without losing my mind). I also wonder if I am too ambitious. Either way, I’ll keep moving forward.
