Outsourcing Your App Development As part of your marketing and promotions, you stumble upon a great idea to market your services: create an app that would help you strengthen your brand and keep you at the top of your customers minds. As with any other buy or rent decisions, you may want to consider letting third-party app developers create your apps for you. Why It Makes Sense to Let Other People Create Your App for You 1. The costs increase if you want a multi-platform app, or one that would work on iOS, Android, and other proprietary operating systems. Further, you must also have test devices handy. 2. This also becomes a problem if you want your app to be truly useful and packed with features. Outsource your apps development and free up your time to focus on things that really matter. 3. Also, established app developers also know what’s allowed and what’s not on different platforms.

Adonna Khare and her Pencil 40 Belief-Shaking Remarks From a Ruthless Nonconformist If there’s one thing Friedrich Nietzsche did well, it’s obliterate feel-good beliefs people have about themselves. He has been criticized for being a misanthrope, a subvert, a cynic and a pessimist, but I think these assessments are off the mark. I believe he only wanted human beings to be more honest with themselves. He did have a remarkable gift for aphorism — he once declared, “It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book.” Even today his words remain controversial. Here are 40 unsympathetic statements from the man himself. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40.

I think the easiest way is with a few more pictures than my previous post on "how to". I hope this helps...and as always...if you ever have questions about anything on my blog...e-mail me at artwithmre@yahoo.com The materials you need for this project are good drawing paper(9x12...but could be done any size), Sharpie Marker, and your choice of media(see the bottom of this post for some ideas). Start with a gentle curve line across the paper. Place eight dots on the line spaced at different distances. Go dot - to - dot across the entire line. As you are going dot -to- dot, you need to "camp out" on some of the segments. The two pictures above are the WRONG way to do this. So here you see the results of the ballooning out, pinching off, and going off the edge of your paper. I thought I'd show you how different media works in this project 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
