Apple came out with updated Mac Pros and iMacs today. I’m an iMac man myself, so that’s what I checked out. Looks nice! Of course, The League of Internet Commenters is busy finding flaws and comparing it to similar offerings from Apple’s competitors. Hardware isn’t my strong suit, but I know half…
Great comparison. I’ve long ago given up trying to find something on HP or Dell’s website. They are both complex and annoying. When you look at Apple’s website on the other hand it looks clear, simple and manageable. Just how I like things to be.
Just a Quick list of what to keep in mind when designing your app with the new Fast App Switching in place:
- the entry point of your app might be anywhere and data may have changed. Even built in Apps like the Photos app get that one wrong. Have the Photos app open. Make new pictures. Go back. Or…
These are all great tips and things to keep in mind when developing for iOS 4
Every time I write a simple function to return a value, I almost always write the same code. It is usually along the lines of this:
if(indexPath.section == 0) return 45; return 65;And immediately after writing it, I scratch my head and go “What the heck am I thinking?”. That’s when I remember…
Apple press Q&A sessions. Always good for a chuckle. Where do they find these knuckleheads?
I wonder how you checkin?

I never make technology-buying decisions based on future promises, rumors, or potential. I let other people be the bleeding-edge extremely early adopters, and I stick with what I know will work and stay out of my way. I don’t buy things that are “getting better”, because they usually don’t. Whatever caused them to be lacking in their current release will usually prevent them from being great in future releases. I buy things that are great today. They’re usually things that have been great since day one. And, more often than not, they’re Apple products.
I couldn’t agree more with this.
John Gruber over at Daringfireball linked to a interesting article by Jeff Richardson on Fancy folder names for iOS 4 by using Neven Mrgan’s Glyphboard. It is however possible to name the folder using Emoji aswell. As I have done for my game folders.
Just thought I’d share.
Patent pending.
NEW iPhone 4 antenna booster! Just $29.99. Really works!*
* As tested compared to licking your hands and squeezing really hard in a weird way that most people are unlikely to do accidentally at the same time that their hands are wet and they’re transferring a lot of data. Results not guaranteed.
…Gruber implies such a scenario is a non-starter, but I think it could work fairly nicely.
The App Store app already notices when you’re reinstalling an app you’ve already downloaded (mostly so Apple doesn’t charge you again, I suspect).
I could envision App Store getting a…
Settings.app already kind of does this, the hiding of system apps, with Parental Restrictions. You can turn of Safari, Youtube, iTunes, App Store and the Camera app from appearing. These apps are obviously not uninstalled but instead just hidden. Why not add in a few more of those System apps then ?
