What Hacker News says?
Kinda looks like he leaves that kind of question to be answered by his ebook see here: http://www.kreci.net/android/make-money-on-android/ http://www.kreci.net/android/make-money-android/ Which just goes to show he can do marketing on more than just android. I guess I'll support it because I really like these income reports but I can't comment on whether the ebook is any good.

HN discussionChris has been very open with his earnings since he first quit his job last year ( http://www.kreci.net/blogging/i-gave-up-a-day-job-to-make-a-... ). It's been inspirational to see how far he's progressed each month.

HN discussionThink about this rationally: How much software do you actively use on your computer? I use perhaps 20 types of software. In total, I may have used 50 or 60 different software in my life. In contrast, I have about 4000 songs. One conclusion that one could make from that is that the app market will stop growing at some point because people will have the software they need. Seems like the logical step. But I'm in the a…

HN discussionCheck out http://www.kreci.net/ for some ideas. He's posted on HN about his experiences quitting his job (in Poland, I think), and various ways to earn over $1000/mo online. He had success with iStockPhoto (still earning a few hundred per month), website flipping, and more recently Android app development (which has eclipsed all other money making efforts).

HN discussionI need to warn the HN crowd. KreCi previously wrote an eBook on improving PageRank. There were a few good reviews and everything sounded great. He sold the site and the eBook on Flippa and make a few hundred bucks. Link to his blog post: http://www.kreci.net/blogging/pagerank-4-in-two-weeks/ Link to the ebook site (now owned by a Flippa purchaser): http://improve-pagerank.com/ I ended up purchasing his book a week o…

HN discussionNo problem, now that I am on lunch, I looked up a few others. Here is the Google guide I was talking about: http://developer.android.com/ here are some tutorials from there: http://developer.android.com/resources/index.html They call these tutorials but you are really just copying and pasting but I bet you could reverse engineer simple apps from this starting point. http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views…
