Blog: I was just awarded the WWDC 2009 Student Scholarship

It looks like WWDC 2009 will be my second WWDC, again courtesy of Apple and their Student Scholarship program for College Students.

WWDC 2009

Last year WWDC was fun for a friend and myself who went together, this year it looks like it’ll just be myself going. Just like last year I’m very excited to be attending WWDC and hope to learn a great many more things about developing for the iPhone and Mac. This marks the second consecutive year that I have received the Student Scholarship from Apple (and hopefully not the last).

Blog: My first (public) App is in the iTunes App Store

My first public iPhone/iPod touch application is now available in the iTunes App Store. My first app, “Calcutipr” is a simple and free Tip Calculator for the iPhone platform. It is the first application that I have polished enough to be ready for distribution.

I haven’t been working on it long, but after rewriting it a few times to mess with different ways of making it work I’ve gotten it to the point it is at now. I plan on updating it and adding new features to it as I come up with ideas for implementing new features.

Give it a try, its Free and you’ve got nothing to loose! iTunes Link.

Blog: My first iPhone app is almost finished…

I’ve almost finished my first iPhone application. I’m working on testing it for bugs, adding a few extras and in the process of submitting it to Apple. Within the next week it should be on the App Store providing all goes well.
