This is the FIRST OF THE ‘ASK’ Questions on the new Category called ASK on therodinhoods.wpengine.com! You will notice the new ‘ASK!’ tab on the top!
Sure, its like Quora, but I believe that a tighter community with local members will add more value to questions that you and I may have. So, if you wanna ASK – just start up a normal discussion and then simply SAVE it in the ASK category at the end of the post!!
Now, to my ASK:
I’m not getting the plot.
Randomly my team and I get calls from the Nokia India Team to BUILD new Apps for their OVI STORES
These are the questions I have asked them that still remain unanswered:
- How do I benefit from free Nokia ‘apps’ when even advertising in them is not an easy format to understand (like putting ad-mob ads in Android/iPhone apps) or implement?
- How do Ovi Apps get distributed? The Indian telecom operators do not distribute Ovi – they distribute Apps that they want on their decks. So how do my Ovi/Nokia apps get discovered?
- Isn’t Ovi as a platform being phased out?
- If I make a ‘paid’ Nokia app – then how does the consumer pay for it?
- Do these apps become redundant after Windows 7 becomes the Nokia platform?
The BIG QUESTION than haunts me is – What is the 19 year old teenager in India BUYING NOW as a replacement to his Nokia Phone?
If its an ANDROID device – then why should I bother with NOKIA?!
That’s part of the reason why the question remains relevant or…
Please tell…I am asking this as a sincere question…. Am i missing out on a bigger plot?
