iPhone developer finally!

Okay, I finally got the 0.30 toolchain for making binary iPhone applications working on my mac. I've been hacking up the hello world application this evening, and finally got NSURL and UITextView to work to download the raw HTML code from work's front page and display it. Nothing special, doesn't look very cool, but it's cool from the perspective that I can use UI elements and I can access the network and retrieve data. Next: responding to real events and not just onLoad type events. Because then I can probably hack up an alpha of a LJ client or something.

Yay!

Yay! HouseFront's iPhone widget (which I created) is finally listed on Apple's official web apps page. This will mean even more users for it.

This is why I don't know that we'll ever go "real trick-or-treating" with our kids.

For those of you wanting to get on the internet...

Munich

In case you've seen Munich, Best Buy has it available at only $10! I was very surprised, usually the good movies are more expensive. Admittedly, it's definitely NOT for kids, or even those easily upset. That said, when bug is older (early teens I think) he will definitely have an assignment to watch and critique/discuss/etc.

Two sites for iPhone users: Flickr's iPhoneWallpapers group and iPhone-Wallpapers.net. I get to choose cool wallpapers. Yay.
