Well great for you then.. But see my posts above. I had an email BOUNCED BACK. An email that was posted as we were supposed to be able to use. Once again it's disorganized (or seems so), so it starts to wither my faith. I think these companies need to understand, that as developers, we have

I am sure by posting this you're already in violation of the NDA, so it won't hurt if you share with us what that developer program that might be. On a general note here: So now your busting your tail off for an early release just to find that you're releasing into a sea of apps that might not

I hope you were not associating me with Sprint. I merely hinted that he may want to put some conditions on what type of apps he was looking to promote. My app is obviously not intended for anyone under 18 and deals with adult subject matter. This is probably the type of information that

That was my impression too. It also links to the thin Android Market web, but that's a different topic... On second thought - that might be what's been referenced to as phase 1. That microsite stuff is nice to look at though. I've seen this first time at Porsche USA on their Panamera campaign.

Hi, If you haven't gotten many replies it's probably because it feels dubious - for example, Motorola had their App accelerator program, which seemed like a good thing, but hasn't done squat for developers yet IMO (I joined it). Really, when I hear good promotion for your app I now think yea

Hi Niko, Thanks for the feedback. Your cynicism actually helps. I wouldn't dare say we're accelerating apps, and I'm not allowed to say how exactly the apps will be featured, only that the site will be very hyped and that the App page in particular will showcase them in a really clever way.

A good starting point would be to let us know what types of apps you are looking for. For example my app is probably not something you would hype because of the implied nature of it. for an example look at www.fuligin.com/game.html On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 9:20 AM, tvprintweb

The process seems straight forward to me. What do you have to lose? Ok, so your app doesn't get 100,000 downloads in a day from the effort. App publicity is hard to come by, especially for free. It's seems like a deal that can't be missed, so stop the complaining and help the promotion out. The
