Manga Translation
Check out my brother’s new Manga Translation web site. He is translating Japanese Manga for learning and profit if anyone has one they would like translated.
iPhone Video Mac
Two very useful tools for getting video on an iPhone:
KeepVid – Lets you download iPhone compatiable (and high quality) MP4 files direct from YouTube – just wack the YouTube URL in the box and you’re done. Thanks Pete.
MPEG StreamClip – it’s not often you find a useful and free video tool – but this is one. Drag-drop, convert to MP4 and click “iTunes” for one of the iTunes presets. Pretty straight forward. Mac only.
Dumbest iPhone App Review Ever
For “PocketGuitar”
“Please do not get this application, if I can save just one person $1.20 then this review will be worth it. Guitarists: Just because this application has strings and frets doesn’t mean you should get it. You can’t play ANY songs and it battles with cords. PLAY YOUR REAL GUITAR INSTEAD!”
Come on mate – you have a guitar and you thought this app would replace it? What did you think it would do??? It’s just a toy.
iPhone Tab Bar
The whole UI controllers setup seems rather complicated from the Interface Builder – so much so that even apple’s examples do not use it!
For Tab bars and lists I would recommend just hand-coding, maybe using the IB for Views only (which can be loaded via code).
Here’s some interesting conversation and sample code
Apple’s TableViewSuite sample, in particular the 5_CustomTableViewCell sub-sample is very useful, and I combined it with some Tab Navigation bar code from that thread for a useful start to my next app (currently unannounced ;-)
Scheduling a task to run at a specific time on Mac OS X
I needed to schedule a task the other day – here’s how you do it, it’s really not intuitive at all:
Add an event in iCal. Right click->properties – set an alarm to be your script / file open / whatever you want and you’re done.
thanks to this site
