The article focuses on iPhone Development here in Vancouver and the opportunities for education and training. A big part of the article is about the [...]
I will be on Strutta Live tomorrow at 4PM. I’ll be sitting down with Jordan Behan and Dustin Sacks. We’ll be talking about games, game development, iPhone development, and how to make all of this stuff as an independent studio.
Me on a couch with a beer in hand. Watch it! I guarantee I will say something controversial.

I will be in Seattle December 9th for Apple’s iPhone Tech Talk World Tour. There is an agenda [PDF] available. The topics seem fairly straight forward and basic. However, it should be a good place to directly ask Apple questions related to iPhone development.

- (ret-type) keyword:(arg-type)arg-name

The iPhone SDK has been updated at a blistering pace and the documentation has not kept up with the API changes as quick as it could be. [...]
If you are an certified iPhone developer, then you have probably been frustrated at some point by the Fucking NDA.
You’ve probably come across the 0xE8000001 error when trying to sign code and provision a device. That last sentence probably doesn’t make any sense to you if you are not a registered developer. I Tweeted about the [...]
