I have tried many times before to get into online commerce – remember first developing an app for Palm PDA which didn’t get through much; then I developed a cross-platform photo-album tool. But that time, I didn’t know how to market it, host it, sell it and so on. So I gave it as free. It picked up pretty good. I even got appreciation from an US professor (in fact he sent me $100). It also got featured in few magazines in Europe.

Ever since I owned a Mac, I wanted to develop for it. This year I started working on it seriously. They have a distribution mechanism and generally Mac user purchase applications instead of looking for free software. On the minus side, they have a strict approval process (which is actually a plus side for users).

As I mentioned earlier I developed an app, which I have submitted for review today. I’m excited and waiting anxiously. I’m told it will take at least 15 days.
