These are applications that make fart sounds under various conditions. There are 50 of them, and some earn as much as $10,000 a a day, according to the report from VentureBeat. At the risk of taking this too seriously, I feel compelled to make a couple of comments. First, what is the tech industry coming to? And, second, what is the media industry coming to? Enough said.
