New link blog
I’ve created a new iPhone and iPad development link blog at http://heroicautobot.tumblr.com. It’s mainly intended for students in my iPhone SDK Programming class, but other folks may also find it useful as well.
Enjoy.

Derek Del Conte has started a Seattle iPhone Developer Group at Google Groups.
Derek is one of the two founders of Innerfence, whom I met at the Seattle iPhone Tech Talk. (Technically, we met at the gathering the night before.) He’s a smart and insightful guy who knows many of the ins and outs of developing [...]
If you are a Mac (or iPhone) developer, I highly recommend getting a subscription to the Mac Developer Network Access to the Developer Lives podcast is worth the price alone, but you also get free and discounted software.
If you are even thinking of considering of toying with the idea of getting a membership, you should [...]

There are some great iPhone development posts here, among other things.
What are these guys working on? The site gives no indication.
I’ve had a couple people ask me how to get started with iPhone development, so I thought I’d post an answer here so I’d only have to write it once. Plus others may find this useful.
Introduction
iPhone development is fun and rewarding, but it requires a significant investment of both money and time. You’ll have no [...]
I now have concrete proof that I have written Objective-C code worthy of including in a product.
I’ve been using FMDB on a couple projects, and found a bug and made a couple improvements. I submitted the changes to Gus and he included them in the project.
Here’s the proof: http://code.google.com/p/flycode/source/diff?r=30&format=side&path=/trunk/fmdb/CHANGES_AND_TODO_LIST.txt
Actually, it was only about 4 lines of [...]
Not to shock anyone, but I think I may start posting again.
As a quick trial, you should check out Adam’s latest blog entry. He helped write a cool facebook app that’s for a good cause.
This collection of responses from Apple engineers provides a lot of insight into what exactly constitutes “Carbon” and what APIs won’t be 64-bit in Leopard.
An interesting snippet:
“Q: Carbon isn’t just the UI stuff if I understand things correctly. Maybe I’m confused. Exactly what does Carbon encompass?”
That’s a darn good question (and practically the first question [...]
Just a quick follow up to my last post.The Apple-style form elements also appear in web pages, not just the application dialogs. This must have involved a significant development effort on Apple’s part. (I have some experience with web browser development.) I think Apple must really want pages to look identical in all versions of [...]
File this under: I know enough to make myself look stupid.
Look at the dialog labeled “General” in this blog post. This is the preferences dialog in Safari for Windows. There are very few clues that it’s a dialog for a Windows application. Really, the only clue is the ‘x’ close button in the upper right [...]
