Wrong app

There is this friend of mine who was trying to develop an email application for a mobile company. He was hoping that if all was well, he would just tell them he had something they might need and all the blah blah blah of marketing (or whatever it is).

I began to wonder if creating an application of such magnitude would not require many programmers. I kept my thoughts to myself.

After several days of writing code, he came up with something he thought was great.

He ran his program and indeed, it was great. The thing was that it was not an email application. He had succeeded in creating an IM application.
