Apps, iPhones, me and Radio 4

By on December 9, 2010

I was interviewed on Radio 4’s You and Yours yesterday.

The subject was kids, apps and iPhones. My contribution is about how apps aimed at kids make money. The reporter managed to re-edit my contribution in a way that I think made more sense than my own rambling interview, so many thanks Sharmani. After the Panorama addiction piece on the television this week, it was nice to hear a balanced, positive report about children and games.

You can find the full segment on iPhone apps for kids on the BBC website (look for Chapter 5). It’s inot just me speaking:- there’s vox pop, an app that helps autistic kids and Encyclopaedia Britannica on there as well. If you’re looking on the iPlayer, it starts at about 30 mins in.
