I normally leave reporting of WWDC events to other blogs, but I thought this was interesting enough that it warranted its own post, especially given the number of people who didnt get tickets this ye...
Since the treadmill desk experiment Ive been engaged in isnt directly related to iPhone Development, Ive been trying not to fill up this blog with posts about it, but it has now been several mon...

Well, even though Ive decided to sit out the bus pilgrimage this year, my friend Scott Knaster (who has done the hard work of arranging the buses in the past) has decided he wont be deterred by my la...
As somebody who reads this blog, you probably already know that WWDC tickets are on sale. I wouldnt expect them to be available long. Apple has taken some steps to slow down the sales, such as implem...
I picked up a new app today called PaintCode. Its targeted at developers, and all drawing actions are recorded as drawing code for OS X or iOS. This is a feature already available in Opacity, but the...
Ive been promising this for a while. I apologize for the delay, but its been a hectic month and I wanted to write up instructions that were easy to follow. I also wanted to make sure my desk continue...

Ive been debating whether to post about the iBooks Author EULA or not. In general, Ive been trying to avoid hotly debated and controversial subjects here for the simple fact that those discussions te...
As my inbox can well attest this morning, the web server that hosted most of my blog files is gone. I moved all the blog files over to Github, but forgot to post about the new repository.Unfortunatel...

Software development is not the easiest vocation for getting or staying in shape. For that matter, being part-owner of a relatively young business isnt either. Ive been steadily putting on weight and...
I regret to inform you that Ive had to completely disable comments on the blog. I had to switch to moderation a while back since the spam detectors were failing to catch anything meaningful. Unfortun...

Jeff Atwood of Coding Horror has an interesting post today about being a developer for Apples ecosystem. Well leave aside for now the fact that Jeff isnt and has never been an Apple developer and is,...
So, like others, I was tempted to write a defense of the iPhone 4S after all the pundits and naysayers came out last week calling the iPhone 4S "disappointing". Im glad I never found the time...
Its been fascinating seeing how many people have responded to the death of Steve Jobs exactly the way I did. Its truly amazing how many people who never met the man feel not just that the world has l...
I havent had much time for blogging lately. I have about a half-dozen unfinished blog posts in my queue, but have been too busy to finish any of them. One of the things keeping me busy right now is w...
