We have more ZURBsoapbox lectures just around the corner. Thanks to everybody for helping to make the first such a success. Like last time, space will be limited and lunch provided, so RSVP to getstarted@zurb.com at least one day before the event so we make things comfy for everybody involved.

Bart will talk about his company Tapulous, which has emerged as an early leader in the iPhone application market thanks to clever apps like Tap Tap Revenge and their Twitter client Twinkle. But like every startup, it's not all roses. Bart will share lessons on the apps that didn't work and thoughts about his young company's rocky road to its current success.
About Bart: Current founder of Tapulous, ZURB originally met Bart when he was founder and CEO of Flock, the social media web browser. Prior to that, Bart toppled Internet Explorer's Web browser monopoly by getting Firefox into the world while heading marketing and business development at the Mozilla Foundation.

Bart is on fire!... he exudes great enthusiasm for what he's doing with Tapulous. With a down-to-earth business sense, Bart is finding the balance between running a hot start-up (becoming one of the leaders in iphone game apps) and moving forward with his longer-term company goals. Great presentation!
