Finally, an end to an unfortunate period for iPhone development. Makes it a lot easier to teach our class now!
To go along with my lecture on performance in CS193P on Tuesday, I posted some sample code for working with threads in iPhone applications.
If you have the iPhone SDK installed, you can download and run LetsMakeAThread (much respect to Douglas Adams) and ThreadedFlickrTableView.
If you aren’t an iPhone development nerd… we now return to our regularly scheduled programming.
A quick recommendation for all those whose New Year’s resolutions included something about personal finance… Mint.com.
Erin & I have been using for the past six months or so, and although it’s sometimes sobering to really realize how much we’ve spent in a month on eating out, electronics or sporting goods, it’s the best tool I’ve found so far to get useful insights on where and how I spend my money.
It’s free and automatically syncs up with all of your bank accounts and credit cards.
They recently launched an iPhone app as well, which is awesome. At a glance you can check on your account balances, investments and how your spending compares to your monthly budget. (Numbers in screenshots below are not mine!).
