This comes from Kontra over on his CounterNotions blog. I think it’s worth reading and I’ve left out the “Remembrance of Things Past” section and that is where the meat is. I have to say that I’ve been noticing in the “press” lately (read blogs) that there seems to be a little backlash against Apple [...]
What can a sampling of 100 applications and 8-million consumers on four platforms tell us about the smartphone application market? A Flurry Of Market Data I don’t want to draw any conclusions for you but basically, why develop for any other handheld platform but the iPhone?
Seems as if Dan Grigsby on Mobile Orchard is my source of iPhone news these days… (I have no idea why this chick came up on a search for iPhone images but I’m going with it…) Anyway, seems like a throw away line here as Dan is talking about the Undo and Redo API for [...]
Guest author Brian Stormon from Stormy Productions is guest blogging on Mobile Orchard with this information on how to keep your iPhone app from being rejected from the Apple AppStore. It’s a pretty insightful read and while I hit the titles, I suggest you visit and read up. I’ve been developing apps for the iPhone [...]
Somehow I don’t think it’s fair that this shitty blog is number one for iPhone game development on Google. So I found what looks to be a very comprehensive iPhone game development tutorial and as a bonus, if there is enough interest the blogger will create more tutorials. Looks like a pretty sweet deal to [...]
Yes, yes, I’m being completely lazy and just clipping the whole post. Sue me. I doubt that Owen is going to mind that we are getting the word out about Dapple. I personally hope that he sells a million of these things and retires in Tahiti with dark island girls feeding him grapes, mangoes or [...]
Dan Grigsby over at the Mobile Orchard asks this question today: when do you start building apps (for your iPhone) that rely on capabilities of the new iPhone 3.0 OS? When do you start building apps that rely on capabilities in 3.0? … At first blush, it looks like an easy question to answer: build [...]
I don’t know what order to post the clips but I think I’ve decided to paste them in the order that I found them. First we have Dan Grigsby on the Mobile Orchard: Wayne Pan benchmarked JavaScript on the iPhone 3.0 beta as compared to the 2.2 release and found performance improvements of 3-10x for [...]
LCARSW on the iPhone. Sweet. Get your geek on Trek fans because the tricorder—no away mission would be complete without one—has come one step closer to reality. Some eager (and obviously talented) beaver has created (ported perhaps?) an LCARS interface (ie the computer interface used in recent generation TV shows and movies) to the iPhone. [...]
Not to feel left out or anything, I want to post that the new iPhone OS 3.0 is going to be announced on March 17th. Personally, I shorted Kimberly Clark stock because of all the fanboys that shit their pants over this announcement of an announcement. We just got the announcement, iPhone OS 3.0 is [...]
I’ve been covering the Streaming Colour iPhone app, Dapple, over the last few days and Owen was nice enough to comment here on this influential blog and also thank us (not by name but we know who he meant) on his blog post today. I believe Owen was quoting from this fantastically, connected to the [...]
Yesterday, some dude wrote about his trials and tribulations developing an app for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Here is my stream of consciousness about him getting slashdotted and the end results. First, here are the results of his getting slashdotted (I was totally dying to know what happened): So, some number, since I had dozens of [...]
From the Sneaky suspicion department: iPhone/iPod development doesn’t pay the bills. Hard work at iPhone/iPod development and pushing, pushing, pushing pay the bills. I think this dude is a brilliant marketer. He hit the front page of Slashdot and was slashdotted most of the morning. How many units did he sell today? More than a [...]
I’m going to bold the important part blow me. As I said the other day, it’s pretty obvious that Bill Gates is gone from Microsoft. It is also becoming increasingly obvious that either Steve Ballmer has been biting his tongue for the past 30 years or he’s an idiot. Microsoft’s business practices have fundamentally diminished [...]
This is a blog...of a person...that sucks at writing. Think of it as Techmeme written by a retard...except without all the hugging.
