The Visionary Billionaire Vegan

TUAW calls Steve Jobs the "visionary billionaire vegan "

People are ever fascinated by the presentations given by the "....Commander in Chief of all Entrepreneurs.."

Business Week's Carmine Gallo wrote and article about 'How to Give a Presentation Like Steve Jobs' that is oft quoted.

Is Jobs a natural at this, OR does he really have to sweat it to deliver his world-famous presentations?

Mike Evangelist of The Guardian gives us the Insider's' scoop on what it really involves, in his article 'Behind the magic curtain'

I found this YouTube Video very interesting

Glory To Free Markets

"The App is a work of Art and included a 'secret mantra' -- that's all."
---- Heinrich




Apple took down a 'Ridiculous' app from the iPhone app store that costed $1000 and did Nothing, except display a graphic and a label 'I am Rich'

I say to Heinrich (who is from Germany) : Great idea and kudos for jumping on it and taking the risk to publish it. Your victory was short lived, but it was sweet!

Apparently this was purchased by 8 customers !

A lot of thoughtfully written apps cost about 99 cents in the app store. These guys would have had to sell 8000 copies to hit that same revenue target.
