The Main Apple Doc

Sun, 19 Feb 2012 04:21:56 -0500

Apple has a lot of great documentation: from the very basic guides and tutorials down to particular API references. But for a very long time newcomers were wondering: where should I start?

Now you know the answer:

For iOS: Start Developing iOS Apps Today

For OS X: Your First Mac App

iOS guide is even better: it shows you all necessary areas from the beginning to the end giving relevant links at each step. Just start with first page and move on.

Dan Rodney’s List of Mac OS X Keyboard Shortcuts & Keystrokes: “I like to figure out the fastest way to do things. I hope these keystrokes help you to become the power user that lies within. They should work on most versions of Mac OS (10.7 Lion, 10.6 Snow Leopard, 10.5 Leopard, and even 10.4 Tiger). I’ll be adding more 10.7 Lion keystrokes, so check back!”

The Nokia Lumia 900

I think Farhad Manjoo has this exactly right on Twitter:

The Lumia 900 is the first phone since the iPhone that I want without even touching it. bit.ly/zMeyqd
— Farhad Manjoo (@fmanjoo) January 9, 2012

I have yet to touch this (or the Lumia 800 for that matter), but what was shown today immediately makes every Android phone look like shit. Well, the iPhone has done that for years. Even more like shit, let’s say.

This is how you need to make a phone in the post-iPhone world. I fully intend to try this phone out to see how it stacks up against the iPhone.

See, it’s not that hard. Make something that looks awesome with a clear attention to detail and people like me will want to try it out. Hopefully this quiets the notion that anything that’s not the iPhone will get no love simply because it’s not the iPhone. (Sadly, it won’t.)

The iPhone is a great product. To beat it, you need to be better than it. No one has done that yet — but even worse, it hasn’t looked like anyone was even trying until now.

Coincidentally, it was exactly 5 years ago today when the iPhone was first unveiled on stage during the Macworld keynote in 2007.

25 Abandoned Yugoslavia Monuments that look like they're from the Future:

These structures were commissioned by former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito in the 1960s and 70s to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place (like Tjentište, Kozara and Kadinjača), or where concentration camps stood (like Jasenovac and Niš).
