In some ways the Apple app store is one of the greatest retail platforms ever invented; it gave the ability for anyone to make an application for their iOS platform and sell it to the public. But in some ways it’s also one of the worst. Don’t get me wrong, I am not one of those guys hoping to get some hits by throwing some wood on the ol’ I hate Apple bonfire, and I am not talking about bars or death grips either.

It’s widely known that “us” Geeks are prominent enough and important enough to warrant an entire culture unto ourselves. Vast fortunes have been made in the tech industry by attempting to appeal to and follow the movement of our very own: Geek Culture.
