My iPhone ate my guitar tuner!?
My friend Dre posted a great presentation that he gave at the Mobile Marketing Conference a couple of days ago.
Dre is always showing me iPhone applications that he downloads to replace other devices in his life. His guitar tuner app, for example, that means he doesn't need a seperate guitar tuner in each of his 11 guitar cases (he like guitars!). Dre makes a good case in this presentation that a growing number of unsuspecting businesses are going to feel the burn when their products start to get replaced by apps in large numbers.
He makes a bunch of other great points too. Take a read - it's short...
