Hi everyone,<p>I recently launched a new iPad app which displays business related inspiring and motivational quotes. As an entrepreneur I find them useful, inspiring, and insightful. Basically I made the app for myself and figured it would probably resonate with the HN crowd as well.<p>http://firesnakelabs.com/?ref=hn<p>I'd love to get your feedback on both the app and the MVP site. Here's 10 codes for the first 10 takers.<p>RE4HL734PEJH

The UI looks pretty cool. Nice work. Any reason you made it a native app instead of an enhanced web app?<p>Out of curiosity, where did you get these quotes from? I'm guessing you culled them from one of the numerous quotation sites on the web, but are you certain your list doesn't contain "fake" quotes meant to trap copyright infringers?<p>I'm not trying to scare you or anything, but with a product you are selling in the hopes of making a profit, I'm curious if you considered that and/or what steps you took to mitigate that risk.
I don't have an iPad so I can't play with the software, but it looks nice from the screenshots =)<p>As far as the site goes, something confused me. The top navigation bar with the "About Us", "Blog", etc, etc doesn't follow you down the site. For some reason, the design (how it seems to shadow and raise above the content) made me think it would. I <i>normally</i> don't like sites which have a bar that follows, but in this case it might be a nice touch.
Really great looking app. Even for such a simple idea, I like how you spent a lot of time on the UI, whereas there are a lot of iphone/ipad apps with simple ideas and very crude UIs.<p>I also really like the possibilities this opens up. Assuming this app does well, you should be able to create very similar apps, or maybe in-app purchases of new quote bundles.<p>Best of luck.
