KnitMinder update

I'm rolling along on KnitMinder development and should have most of the features done in the next week or so. Add another two weeks for intensive testing and I hope to have it submitted to the App Store in early March. I will start posting screenshots in the forums so you can get a look at the functionality.

I've decided on an initial price of $4.99 for KnitMinder. Pricing was probably the hardest part of the whole development process for me. KnitMinder is a complex application and has taken quite a lot of time and effort to design and develop. There are also recurring costs associated with putting applications on the App Store (web site hosting being one of them!). My hope is that knitters will be excited and interested enough to skip one caramel macchiato at Starbucks and spend that money on my app instead... :) I am considering a free edition of the app which has fewer features, but it may be a while before I get to that.

As an added incentive to purchase the KnitMinder, I will be donating 10% of my proceeds from sales of this application to animal-related charities. My wife and I are very involved in house rabbit rescue, so the first beneficiary will be the The House Rabbit Society. I'll report back on sales and the donations in this blog.

KnitMinder is coming! I'm excited! I hope you knitters are, too!
