Ha, this is pretty cool.

I agree. I also think that the poster could have talked with a DO rep. before making this public. It seems like the intention was to "expose" DO. I could be wrong though.

I agree collecting those precious emails will go a long way.

good one!

Yes! forgot about that one. Hosting services practically hand them out.

This is a great post. I've been down a similar path. Exhausting myself financially via my first attempt at business . Learned a ton, and realized that I needed time to get somethings in order and returned to working a 9-5 only to return to solo (for the most part) consulting and working on my product.

Good luck and keep us posted!

There was a time where Google was sending them out by mail (they may still be doing this). I've also heard of people signing up and when Google gives them a call (Google usually gives you a phone call to see how everything is going with your new account) they strike a deal with the agent over the phone.

Man that link looks so suspicious! lol. At 13 though?! wow! thats pretty impressive.

+1 looks legit.

I thought that too. I like some of the JS stuff they have though. Like the pagination and date picker.

Nice! I am gonna check out the post now. It excites me to hear stories like yours - it installs a little hope in all of us :p.

What catapulted (if anything) you to achieving so much success with tiny piano? Especially with getting to 6 million free downloads?

- Was it something that people naturally search for?

- What types of marketing/advertising did you do?

- Do any of the other apps help supplement income?

haha that does sound a lil creepy!

I've yet to be asked for any type of degree (I don't have one) for places I've been hired for, consulted at and/or interviewed for. I've also seen people highly decorated with degrees and certificates that can barely get an interview. I think it all depends on the person, their attitude, their ability to connect with people and willingness to learn from others.

I'm impressed! It loads super fast. Good work.
