A Million Dollar App 1.0


Category: Business
Price: Free (iTunes)

Description:

Q: So, what’s the idea?
================================
A: It’s very simple. We are trying to make 1 million dollars (or the equivalent in your currency) by selling 1 million pixels for $1 (or the equivalent) each.

Everyone is welcome to buy pixels, which are available in blocks. Every block is 10x10 pixels (a total of 100 pixels per block). The application contains 10,000 of these blocks, which makes 1,000,000 pixels. The reason to sell the pixels in 10x10 blocks is because it’s very hard to display anything meaningful in less space than this.

You can buy as many pixels as you want as long as they are available. Once you buy a particular block of pixels you can upload a 10x10 ad/image/logo and make it link to your own web site, iphone application, or wherever you want. No obscene or offensive images are allowed.

Once you buy some pixels they become yours forever and you can change the images, the links they point to, and the description anytime you want. We are hoping to support this app for at least 2 years with the money we make and think that in the long term the pixels will offer good value.


Q: Who are you?
================================
A: We are two guys from Europe (both 26 years old) trying to make our ideas a reality, but you can’t make great stuff without money especially in a financial crisis. You can check out the project of our dreams at www.ugdb.com. We are trying to create a great social gaming website and we can use your help there if you are a gamer. We are also in love with the iPhone/iPod Touch and have several great ideas, which we’d like to bring to life one day.


Q: Do you really need 1 million dollars?
================================
A: No, we don’t. A lot less money will be enough to make ugdb.com a great place on the web and help us finance our iPhone projects, but in order to make the Million Dollar App interesting it has to be called the Million Dollar App. The “100,000 Dollar App” or the “10,000 Dollar App” doesn’t sound serious. Also, we couldn’t resist not to try it. Is it still possible for individuals and startups to make one million dollars in the AppStore?


Q: Why should I buy your pixels?
================================
A: Because you will get your very own spot in the Million Dollar App, which is going to be yours forever and can potentially be seen by millions. You will be able to upload a small 10x10 image (or more images if you have bought more blocks), a bigger 50x50 image and a short description, which the user will see after tapping on your pixels. Also, you can set a URL for the particular block and use it to show your web site or your iphone application to the user. You will be able to change the contents of your blocks anytime you want.


Q: Do I get any privilege if I’m one of the first to buy pixels?
================================
A: Actually, yes! Because the iPhone / iPod Touch screen is smaller than 1,000,000 pixels the users have to scroll in order to see all blocks. To make this easier, we have implemented a “Smart Scroll” function. After the user opens the application, the screen scrolls automatically to a position where there are purchased blocks. So, if you are one of the first to buy pixels, you will get more exposure for your blocks.


Q: You said that you can’t show all 1,000,000 pixels on the iPhone screen at once. How do I know the users will ever see my blocks?
================================
A: The “Smart Scroll” function takes care for this. When the application is opened, the screen will be scrolled to a position the user hasn’t seen before and then will be repeated again after several application launches. This way everyone will have a good chance of exposure.

Category: Entertainment
Price: Free (iTunes)

Description:

Free/Lite version of popular CLIPish app.

Send thousands of romantic Valentine Greetings, Animations, Emoticons, Videos and Clip Art images via text messages and emails.

************************************************************
"CLIPish is Emoji icons on steroids! With thousands more icons than Emoji, as well as clip art, emoticons, videos and animations, CLIPish takes text messaging to a whole new level." ~ John Frameir, App Review Weekly
************************************************************
"There are a few apps that EVERY iPhone user should have. CLIPish is one such app." ~ Sandra Root, Apple Journal
************************************************************
Now that the iPhone supports MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) in many markets, why settle for a few hundred tiny Emoji icons, when you can be inserting THOUSANDS of videos, emoticons, clip art, and animations into your text messages.

Watch video demo: http://clipish.net/video

FEATURES:
************************************************************
* BROWSE thousands of Animations, Videos, Emoticons, and Clip Art images to insert instantly, right into your text messages.
* SEARCH for specific items, such as "Christmas Tree," "Good morning," "I love you," and be shown dozens of images to choose from for each search term.
* ONE-TAP COPY for quick insertion using copy and paste, or…
* SAVE your favorite items for quick insertion via your Photo Library.
* BEAUTIFUL CLIP ART LIBRARY from world-renowned graphics designer Everaldo Coelho.
* SEND images to any MMS-capable phone, not just iPhones*.
* UPDATED DATABASE of images delivered daily directly to your device via the CLIPish servers.
* IMAGE FILTER to set your library to G Rated, PG-13, or No Filter.
* OPTIMIZE SAVED images for text messaging, email, wallpaper, Facebook, etc.
* CLIPish was designed specifically to add images to text messages, but it works equally as well to insert images into your emails, notes, Facebook, desktop wallpapers, etc., thereby working for both the iPhone and iPod Touch.
************************************************************
*A NOTE ABOUT COMPATIBILITY with non-iPhone users: Depending on what cell network and type of cell phone the person you're sending to has, some of the images you send may not work. This has nothing to do with CLIPish, but is a factor of the compatibility between: 1) the iPhone, 2) your network provider, 3) the other person's network provider, and 4) the other person's cell phone. See http://clipish.net/support for more details.

**FAST INTERNET CONNECTION RECOMMENDED: Due to the extensive server-side communication for downloading images, CLIPish works best for users with a strong 3G signal or WiFi connection. CLIPish is NOT recommended for users with Edge, slower connections, and/or weak signals.

Input and suggestions always welcome. Please contact us at support@clipish.net

The Mahabharata, Book 4: Virata Parva
Kisari Mohan Ganguli, tr.

Om! Having bowed down to Narayana, and Nara the foremost of male beings, and the goddess Saraswati also, must the word Jaya be uttered.

It is of immense importance to the culture of the Indian subcontinent, and is a major text of Hinduism. Its discussion of human goals (artha or purpose, kama or pleasure, dharma or duty/harmony, and moksha or liberation) takes place in a long-standing tradition, attempting to explain the relationship of the individual to society and the world (the nature of the 'Self') and the workings of karma.

The object of a translator should ever be to hold the mirror upto his author. That being so, his chief duty is to represent so far as practicable the manner in which his author's ideas have been expressed, retaining if possible at the sacrifice of idiom and taste all the peculiarities of his author's imagery and of language as well. In regard to translations from the Sanskrit, nothing is easier than to dish up Hindu ideas, so as to make them agreeable to English taste. But the endeavour of the present translator has been to give in the following pages as literal a rendering as possible of the great work of Vyasa. To the purely English reader there is much in the following pages that will strike as ridiculous. Those unacquainted with any language but their own are generally very exclusive in matters of taste. Having no knowledge of models other than what they meet with in their own tongue, the standard they have formed of purity and taste in composition must necessarily be a narrow one. The translator, however, would ill-discharge his duty, if for the sake of avoiding ridicule, he sacrificed fidelity to the original. He must represent his author as he is, not as he should be to please the narrow taste of those entirely unacquainted with him. Mr. Pickford, in the preface to his English translation of the Mahavira Charita, ably defends a close adherence to the original even at the sacrifice of idiom and taste against the claims of what has been called 'Free Translation,' which means dressing the author in an outlandish garb to please those to whom he is introduced.

Janamejaya said, "How did my great-grandfathers, afflicted with the fear of Duryodhana, pass their days undiscovered in the city of Virata? And, O Brahman, how did the highly blessed Draupadi, stricken with woe, devoted to her lords, and ever adoring the Deity 1, spend her days unrecognised?"

Vaisampayana said, "Listen, O lord of men, how thy great grandfathers passed the period of unrecognition in the city of Virata. Having in this way obtained boons from the god of Justice, that best of virtuous men, Yudhishthira, returned to the asylum and related unto the Brahmanas all that had happened. And having related everything unto them, Yudhishthira restored to that regenerate Brahmana, who had followed him the churning staff and the fire-sticks he had lost. And, O Bharata, the son of the god of Justice, the royal Yudhishthira of high soul then called together all his younger brothers and addressed them, saying, 'Exiled from our kingdom, we have passed twelve years. The thirteenth year, hard to spend, hath now come. Do thou therefore, O Arjuna, the son of Kunti, select some spot where we may pass our days undiscovered by our enemies.'"

"Janamejaya said, 'O thou foremost of regenerate ones, deceitfully defeated at dice by the sons of Dhritarashtra and their counsellors, incensed by those wicked ones that thus brought about a fierce animosity, and addressed in language that was so cruel, what did the Kuru princes, my ancestors--the sons of Pritha--(then) do? How also did the sons of Pritha, equal unto Sakra in prowess, deprived of affluence and suddenly over whelmed with misery, pass their days in the forest? Who followed the steps of those princes plunged in excess of affliction? And how did those high souled ones bear themselves and derive their sustenance, and where did they put up? And, O illustrious ascetic and foremost of Brahmanas, how did those twelve years (of exile) of those warriors who were slayers of foes, pass away in the forest? And undeserving of pain, how did that princess, the best of her sex, devoted to her husbands, eminently virtuous, and always speaking the truth, endure that painful exile in the forest? O thou of ascetic wealth tell me all this in detail, for, O Brahmana, I desire to hear thee narrate the history of those heroes possessed of abundant prowess and lustre. Truly my curiosity is great.'

"Vaisampayana said,--"Then, in the presence of Vasudeva, Maya Danava, having worshipped Arjuna, repeatedly spoke unto him with joined hands and in amiable words,--'O son of Kunti, saved have I been by thee from this Krishna in spate and from Pavaka (fire) desirous of consuming me. Tell me what I have to do for thee.

"Arjuna said,--'O great Asura, everything hath already been done by thee (even by this offer of thine). Blest be thou. Go whithersoever thou likest. Be kind and well-disposed towards me, as we are even kind to and well-pleased with thee!'

"Maya said,--'O bull amongst men, what thou hast said is worthy of thee, O exalted one. But O Bharata, I desire to do something for thee cheerfully. I am a great artist, a Viswakarma among the Danavas. O son of Pandu, being what I am, I desire to do something for thee.'

"Arjuna said,--'O sinless one, thou regardest thyself as saved (by me) from imminent death. Even if it hath been so, I cannot make thee do anything for me. At the same time, O Danava, I do not wish to frustrate thy intentions. Do thou something for Krishna. That will be a sufficient requital for my services to thee.'

The Mahabharata, Book 1: Adi Parva
Kisari Mohan Ganguli, tr.

Om! Having bowed down to Narayana and Nara, the most exalted male being, and also to the goddess Saraswati, must the word Jaya be uttered.

It is of immense importance to the culture of the Indian subcontinent, and is a major text of Hinduism. Its discussion of human goals (artha or purpose, kama or pleasure, dharma or duty/harmony, and moksha or liberation) takes place in a long-standing tradition, attempting to explain the relationship of the individual to society and the world (the nature of the 'Self') and the workings of karma.

The object of a translator should ever be to hold the mirror upto his author. That being so, his chief duty is to represent so far as practicable the manner in which his author's ideas have been expressed, retaining if possible at the sacrifice of idiom and taste all the peculiarities of his author's imagery and of language as well. In regard to translations from the Sanskrit, nothing is easier than to dish up Hindu ideas, so as to make them agreeable to English taste. But the endeavour of the present translator has been to give in the following pages as literal a rendering as possible of the great work of Vyasa. To the purely English reader there is much in the following pages that will strike as ridiculous. Those unacquainted with any language but their own are generally very exclusive in matters of taste. Having no knowledge of models other than what they meet with in their own tongue, the standard they have formed of purity and taste in composition must necessarily be a narrow one. The translator, however, would ill-discharge his duty, if for the sake of avoiding ridicule, he sacrificed fidelity to the original. He must represent his author as he is, not as he should be to please the narrow taste of those entirely unacquainted with him.

Ugrasrava, the son of Lomaharshana, surnamed Sauti, well-versed in the Puranas, bending with humility, one day approached the great sages of rigid vows, sitting at their ease, who had attended the twelve years' sacrifice of Saunaka, surnamed Kulapati, in the forest of Naimisha. Those ascetics, wishing to hear his wonderful narrations, presently began to address him who had thus arrived at that recluse abode of the inhabitants of the forest of Naimisha. Having been entertained with due respect by those holy men, he saluted those Munis (sages) with joined palms, even all of them, and inquired about the progress of their asceticism. Then all the ascetics being again seated, the son of Lomaharshana humbly occupied the seat that was assigned to him. Seeing that he was comfortably seated, and recovered from fatigue, one of the Rishis beginning the conversation, asked him, 'Whence comest thou, O lotus-eyed Sauti, and where hast thou spent the time? Tell me, who ask thee, in detail.'

Description:

The Atharva-Veda
translated by Maurice Bloomfield

When Agni, having entered the waters, burned, where the (gods) who uphold the order (of the universe) rendered homage (to Agni), there, they say, is thy origin on high: do thou feel for us, and spare us, O takman!

The present volume of translations comprises about one third of the entire material of the Atharva-veda in the text of the Saunaka-school. But it represents the contents and spirit of the fourth Veda in a far greater measure than is indicated by this numerical statement. The twentieth book of the Samhitâ, with the exception of the so-called kuntâpasûktini, seems to be a verbatim repetition of mantras contained in the Rig-veda, being employed in the Vaitâna-sûra at the sastras and stotras of the soma-sacrifice: it is altogether foreign to the spirit of the original Atharvan.

These successive acts of exclusion have made it possible to present a fairly complete history of each of the hymns translated. The employment of the hymns in the Atharvanic practices is in closer touch with the original purpose of the composition or compilation of the hymns than is true in the case of the other collections of Vedic hymns. Many times, though by no means at all times, the practices connected with a given hymn present the key to the correct interpretation of the hymn itself. In any case it is instructive to see what the Atharvan priests did with the hymns of their own school, even if we must judge their performances to be secondary.
