Hello World!

I have to say that there is not much more gratifying seeing people pay for something you've produced.  It kind of validates the time and effort you've put into the project.  My Handicap application has made a couple sales in the first couple days which has me totally pumped.  I expected sales to be very slow early on and perhaps increase as I started advertising.

The tools that Google provides online are very cool.  I was able to create an account, upload my application and then find it on the marketplace in minutes.  I'd say the upload is almost instantaneously available on the marketplace. Once you've setup your account you can use their checkout site to see how many people have downloaded your app and any error reports your app has generated.  I discovered I had an error with lead me to add some new logic for error validation on the New Course screen and handicap calculation.  I'll be uploading a new version shortly.

Now the question is what next?  I'll be continuing to update handicap with small enhancements over time but I'm currently evaluating other projects.  My wife has one app she'd like to see done before our trip out east.  I might like to get start that Buzz client I was looking into originally.  I also might want to see how ads work in my apps.  Maybe offer add free versions for a cost and app supported versions for free.
