Raven Zachary posted Turning Ideas into iPhone Applications on to the OReilly Inside iPhone blog tonight. One of the interesting bits is that he laid down an expected minimum “going price” for a good iPhone developer ($125/hr if you’re curious). But what I really thought was interesting is that it’s yet again another refrain of the idea that “ideas are worthless, execution is everything”.
The idea might be great, but without the execution it doesn’t effectively exist. The best metaphor I found along these lines was that ideas were a multiplier on execution. A mediocre idea with excellent execution is far, far more than a brilliant idea with no execution.
