Going Indie

… as in independent developer. Great blog posts and videos - I got the links from a Cocoaheads talk in San Francisco in 2009, during WWDC. I included the original bit.ly links so it would easy to remember (plus the original links just in case the Libyan government cancels the bit.ly domain - haha)

NOTE - Unfortunately the Viddler videos (Indie Ethos, Apple to Indie) are now gone, Viddler has pivoted to something else, and I can’t find any other site that has those two videos.

1. Indie Ethos (video) by Jonathan ‘Wolf’ Rentzsch [http://bit.ly/indie1] [original]
2. How to become an independent programmer in just 1068 days by Gus Mueller of Flying Meat Inc. (maker of Acorn, an image editor) [http://bit.ly/indie2] [original]
3. Indie Fever by Daniel Jalkut of Red Sweater Software (maker of MarsEdit, blogging software) [http://bit.ly/indie3] [original]
4. Indie Fever by Michiel van Meeteren for Sofa (maker of Versions, a SVN client) [http://bit.ly/indie4] [original]
5. Apple to Indie by Buzz Andersen (maker of BirdFeed, now Brizzly - a Twitter client for the iPhone). Good insights on what goes on inside Apple by a former Apple Engineer’s perspective.
