The Software Business Online conference was last week in San Diego (Software Business Online - Sept 29, 2009) - I had the honor of presenting NewsGator's iPhone Framework, TapLynx, to a few hundred entrepreneurs, vcs & business development folks. The title of the presentation was actually "How Branded iPhone Applications Can Increase Your Audience Size and Produce Revenue", or "Why you should take a closer look at TapLynx" for short :).
One of the core points I was trying to make in the presentation is that the current mobile market is facing a lot of the same market dynamics that we saw 15 years ago when the web was getting started: there are/were lots of devices getting online (data plans on phones are relatively new), technology getting simpler (anyone remember trying to establish a PPP connection on a dial up modem?), and ultimately every company needed a website, much like the rampant demand for mobile applications now. Last May there were 35,000 apps in the app store, now five months later, there are 85,000. We can only hope to continue on the same trajectory.
