“ Music and audio sharing service for artists, SoundCloud, today announced the launch of their App Gallery, “a nice home for all the apps using the SoundCloud API.” In the process they are demonstrating how startups can develop thriving application ecosystems without the “get rich quick” motivation that drives many developers to create for that other app store.

Nice write-up over on Arctic Startups about the App Gallery and developer resources we launched yesterday. (via soundcloud)
My favorite part:
In particular, why does a handful of Swedish guys who moved their company to Berlin just because the parties are better, think they can build a dynamic App Gallery?
The answer, which is both very simple and very complex is this: they have an insanely great service that provides a very high value to their users.
