Folks who want to see this (and it IS good) can go to Google Reader, type "Add a feed", punch in Streaming Colour into the search box, and see their last 10 posts. At time of comment this is the top one. (Hint: this is a good trick to remember. Google will almost certainly have a cached copy of any feed you have interest in reading ever.)

Sample:

I hope that this article might serve as a counter-point to the articles that seem to go around the web about devs making hundreds of thousands of dollars off an iPhone app. Everyone within the dev community understands that the odds of that happening are very slim, yet those are the stories that people like to hear. ... My hope is that we’ll start seeing more developers putting out quality titles in the hopes of gradually growing a sustainable business.
