I don’t know about you, but as a web designer I find it quite frustrating when working on a project to have to run a seperate FTP app. How great would it be if you could see all your files and folders on the remote server within Finder?!!
ExpanDrive is a really unique FTP client that does just that by providing a simple, convenient way to access, and edit files on your remote server by mounting it as if it were an external hard drive on your local system.
So lets dive in, and take a look at how it works. (more…)
I recently downloaded the iPhone Software Development Kit (SDK) and I’m really loving it. I’m a developer for the Mac and I’ve found iPhone development an easy transition because the iPhone tools are the same as the tools you use on the Mac.
When I code for the Mac I tend to use Applescript Studio (part of Xcode). Once I installed the SDK I dived straight into Xcode to see how it had changed. The UI seemed the same – except for the intro screen which now included iPhone info.
After looking through the online documentation I discovered that it costs $99 to become a registered iPhone developer. You need to be registered to have Apple put your apps in the store. Although Blue Pyjama is growing we aren’t actually getting any money through our doors so that $99 enterance fee put my dreams of being an App Store developer a bit further out of reach. (more…)
In my opinion, this is a big no-no for Apple because of one thing: developers. When Apple first introduced the iPhone, Steve Jobs talked about the user interface saying that, with current smart phones at the time, “you can’t go in and add a button; they’ve already been shipped!” He went on to say that their interfaces couldn’t work because they weren’t changeable for each application. This is also the reason against the iPhone Nano, in a sense. (more…)
I, Keaton Brant, am proud to announce that I have finally finished a project that I have been working on for months. It’s been a tough road, I’ve had to devote many hours a day just to ponder the hugeness of this task, but I have finally done it. Yes, I have done what many have tried and failed to do, I have made a “Hello World” app in Xcode!

iPhone 2.0…..Software
His holly Steveness first said he would talk about the iPhone 2.0 Software. Now we had heard a lot about the SDK from previous events such as the iPhone software roadmap. We all know that Apple are trying to push enterprise on the iPhone and also trying to make it a better experience for developers by, well, letting them develop for the thing!
