iPhone Last week, Raven Zachary spoke at Inverge 2008, the interactive convergence conference held in Portland, Oregon. Conference founder Steve Gehlen gave him two five-minute slots to talk about the iPhone. The first talk focused on the platform opportunity and why he is passionate about the iPhone as a game-changer in the mobile space (passionate enough to transition out of a very cool job as an open source analyst and focus on the iPhone full-time). The second talk focuses on the diversity of applications available today in the App Store. In an attempt for this talk to be a bit more entertaining to his audience during that 3-4pm hormonal low point after lunch (and it worked), a fair number of the 20 applications he covered fall into the amusing or absurd categories. Hit the link to see his slide show, and enjoy!
