It was a midweek side project so there was never a business model in mind. I tried starting up http://kennelboard.com, but it never really took off (selling and developing is hard on your own), so I'm now looking for a job and hoping that this will help me swoon potential employers.

Hey, great job! A real test of an idea could often be it's potential to generate revenue.

I understand that it is a side-project and you may have different motivations.

But I guess it is even more reasonable for you to try implementing a business model. There is not much to lose (given you don't end up putting desperate adverts all over the app... Duh!) As an example, the 'karma-as-commodity' model might just work.

Point here being that I don't see something as valuable to a potential employer as a person who can write amazing apps and make some solid money out of it.

Love the design/UI for kennelboard... any ideas why it never really took off?
