With the invention of the iPhone came many great opportunities. Apple, like YouTube, used user generated material to help grow their franchise. If you are unsure of what I am talking about, I am talking about how anyone can create an iPhone app for free and try and sell it through i-Tunes.
In the begining, there were many apps that were highly requested, most of which cost money. Many people profited from this new type of creation. One man made over $6000 by creating an "I'm rich" app that did absolutely nothing! He sold this app for $999 per app.
Seeing that there is a great chance to make some extra income, people have begun to spend day and night trying to create an app that will be popular, and make them money. This new craze has driven people of all skill levels to try and create an iPhone app. People who have never laid eyes on code, or know how to write code, are begining to learn it. They want to jump on the iPhone app bandwagon. Will the ever growing popularity of the app take away from the quality of them? Will this new craze make redundant apps? Who knows! Everything is up in the air, and for now, Apple is going to sit back, relax, and profit off of our inventions!
