You're right about apps being popular and continually growing in importance.

However, you're talking about a task (creating/updating a CV) that takes a lot of manual work and editing. It could certainly be automated to a large extent by grabbing existing information from LinkedIn or Facebook or wherever. But when you get down to the details, there's a lot to write. That will never be fun to do in an app.

I can't imagine people caring how "fun" a CV app/website is so long as it helps them get the resume updated and get a new job.



I agree. But we also thought it's not possible to cut video on a phone before iPhone.

Look around, millions of people grab 1080p and cut on a pocket device. Not just that, much more.

I was suggesting to be creative and think ahead. I am biased, but I believe it would work great and bring revenue to the table fast.
