Core Animation: Simplified Animation Techniques – Book Review
Core Animation is a topic that I’ve brought up a few times showing some code snippets for simple animation effects, and talking about how it could be used in simple games. Unfortunately the amount of material available covering Core Animation has been somewhat lacking, and nothing especially specifically covering iPhone OS 3. Fortunately Core Animation: Simplified Animation Techniques For Mac And iPhone Development was released in Late 2009 that covers this topic in more depth.

4 iPhone Development On Windows Options
Some time ago I decided to list a couple of options available for iPhone development on windows. Now, months later this is still something that has been brought up recently.

Please note, that there is no official solution for developing for the iPhone SDK on windows (and it’s doubtful there ever will be).
Core Data Tutorial – NSFetchedResultsController
Core Data is an extremely hot topic, and one of the key difficulties people seem to be having is integrating Core Data with a UITableView. This is where the NSFetchedResultsController comes in.
Marcus Zarra of Cocoa is My Girlfriend and author of the Pragmatic Programmers Core Data book has written an excellent tutorial on Core Data in the January 2010 Issue of Pragpub magazine (PDF link). The tutorial begins on page 24.
If You Could Ask Someone With A Successful App Anything…
I decided to ask a couple of successful iPhone developers if they would be willing to be interviewed for a podcast I am adding to this site, but I need your help.
I don’t want the podcasts to sound like the audio press releases that I’ve heard on so many blogs. For one, I don’t want these calls to take longer than 15 minutes as I’m an efficiency freak, and I would also like to transcribe the calls.
