Phil speaks about "extended memory," the concept of outsourcing human memory to your mobile device through Evernote. Joel discusses his development of iFart, an immensely popular app. What are the guerilla marketing ideas you can use to promote an app? Raven discusses Nearby, a community-based mapping app. - Questions and Answers (7:30) FREE!
