Which options do I have to monetize desktop application like TweetDeck
Hello all
I build desktop application that is integration between Twitter / facebook/ picasa / (can be others ) on speed (build with c++ with much more options).
It is build first for my use . but then people liked it and started to use it .
Its still in very early beta . before I publish to it to the public . which options do I have to monetize it.
So it can generate income.
Thanks

Advertising. Affiliate programs. Maybe a partnership with a relevant website that can pay you for leads. Hogan give this away for free to get people to sign up to another service you create.
You can charge people to use your product if it solves a real pain point. For example http://clipyourphotos.com/bulkr/ and some other applications by a developer seems to be doing nicely. It may not get you to millions of dollars in revenues, but few thousands every year is a good start nonetheless.
