The future of sustainable app development is to give away as much value as possible and empower those who receive more value to pay more for it. David Barnard (via Blog: The Sparrow Opportunity )
How Much Does It Cost To Make An App? Estimate the cost of an app easily using this handy tool. This budget range is a rough estimate based on the amount of time it will take to complete your project and a recommended budget of $60-100 USD per hour (market rate for quality talent is typically in this range). Considering the base rates stated in the tool, we can derive the following effort estimates which, in my opinion, are much more interesting to analyse (from a development point of view):...
Due to the interconnected, non-simple structure of ontologies, it’s difficult to give a simple diagram that fully models one. Instead, I’m just going to list the broad categories of classes that you find in an application and simply discuss how they actually interconnect.

Where can I get more information?
First and foremost, all we really did was our best implementation of what Chris Phin asked all App Makers to do in his talk at NSConference 5 . Our “perfect press release,” was literally just a point for point copy of the ideal press release from his talk, which I hope nobody will mind me sharing here. (via Launch Thanks | mur.mu.rs )
