Android App Store Disappoints Humans
September 2, 2009
Short honk: I use a mobile phone as a phone. Sure, I check email, but I am not a 20 something with nimble thumbs and keen vision. I did find TechCrunch’s “Top Developer Reveals Android Market’s Meager Sales” revelatory. Not only is the market small and the interface clunky, a “top developer” could make more money as a Wal*Mart greeter than a seller of Android software. For me, the most interesting comment in Jason Kincaid’s write up was:
Hall also writes that the rumored
Android market size of $5 million a month (which still pales in comparison to the App Store’s) is likely an overestimate.
Androids are supposed to dream of electric sheep, not dream of being sheared, then rendered for their hooves. Do I smell failure near the Android processing center?
