Mind you, given that Liss is on a bunch of Apple-focused podcasts, writing and publishing and marketing an iOS app really is giving him useful brand-related experiences. Being able to pull out recent personal anecdotes is very handy, even if he doesn't make any notable money directly from it.

Sure, in theory that makes sense. But he hasn't mentioned it once before last week, and he usually talks very little about his apps, so I don't think that is the main, or even an important reason. He also hasn't mentioned that as a reason.

He’s been talking about his apps for a decade. I first heard about FastText from an episode of Marco’s first podcast.

He talked about his other app too.

Siracusa even talks about his little Mac App Store apps that he admits may have made $30.

Marco is the only one who considers his app development as a real income stream.
