The winners of the Great Indie Bake-Off 2008 have been announced - congrats to Appy for proving that outsourcing works (not to be confused with "off-shoring", BTW) and Chirp! for making a great looking piece of dessert - home made, a true "indie". The lucky voter that will be getting showered with prizes is Sean Waters - spend those iTunes gift cards wisely ;-) This contest once again highlights what's so great about the indie crowd: the willingness to put everything you got on the line, come up with innovative ways of producing and marketing your product, and manage to have fun along the way. You might or might not care about becoming a millionaire, you might or might not get a chance to make it "big" - but you know that it's all in your hands, you enjoy doing what you are doing and will not give up easily - that's the spirit! Many thanks to Gavin Bowman from Antair Games for organizing this event, to everybody who contributed cakes and prizes, and to 148Apps for hosting the voting. Hopefully we'll get to do this again in 2009! -- Peter Bakhyryev |
