Panel: Tablet Monetization and Models

Presentation from Modev Tablet Conference, September 14, 2012. www.modevtablet.com

MoDev is much more than just another Meetup. We have grown from a grass roots organization of mobile developers to one of the leading mobile technology and business organizations in the country.

How does monetization on a Tablet differ from phones? What are people buying on Tablets and do they click mobile ads at the same rate as a phone user? What are the trends and where are the opportunities for developers? Our expert panel takes us through the pitfalls and leads us to the promise land for monetizing Tablet content and conducting commerce.

David is the Chief Business Officer at FlipSide5. FlipSide5, Inc. was founded in late 2007 to deliver the world's best software for the world's best mobile platform, the iPhone and iPod touch. At FlipSide5, our promise is easy; "Simple. Fun. Wow." That guarantee to our users is the soul of who we are and what we do.

After delivering our first web-based game for the iPhone, Tic-Tac-Touch, the popularity was overwhelming. Our second game, Touch4 for the iPhone was amazingly even more popular. Within the first 5 months there had been over 1.3 million games played. Best-of-Breed software is what we do. Apple selected both Tic-Tac-Touch and Touch4 as Staff Picks. We have received thousands of email requests for a version of these games on the iPhone and iPod touch that can be downloaded and installed. We are more than enthusiastic to deliver on this popular request using Apple's iPhone SDK.
