It’s extremely rare that I watch TV, but since the Super Bowl I’ve been hooked on undercover boss. That show is awesome! #
@vegasgeek Flixster is great for managing your Netflix on the go. I use it quite often. in reply to vegasgeek #
@shrtcrt I have checked out a few and reviewed the features of others. Flixster stands out of the crowed. Check it out. in reply to shrtcrt #
@barbalet I though the class was only once a week? How many students total? in reply to barbalet #
iPad out on April 3. Preorder it on March 12. I hope Apple/AT&T enable tethering on the iPhone to use on the WiFi iPad. #
@shrtcrt I’m currently in the iPhone dev program. Did you ever sign up? in reply to shrtcrt #
RunRev looks really interesting for mobile development, if pricey. http://www.runrev.com/products/revmobile/overview/ #
@shrtcrt I was thinking of writing a Netflix iphone app myself. Maybe we should brainstorm on an app together. in reply to shrtcrt #
I just had to get Ollie the Twitterific mascot. It’s pretty cool. http://twitpic.com/16z1zs #

@shrtcrt @barbalet figured it out. I was including the .h file I needed for object reference, but I didn’t make the connection in IB. Whew! in reply to shrtcrt #
iPhone programming greatly affects your diet. Breakfast: bacon & coffee. No lunch. Dinner: popcorn & Lambrusco #
Just made a new song using Smule I Am T-Pain App - “‘Bout Dat Scrum” - http://smule.net/aOAd #
Yeah that’s right I like Scrum so much that I made a rap about it using the I Am T-Pain iPhone app. It was a lot of fun doing it. #
@barbalet is that a trick question? in reply to barbalet #

@johnhilts Correct. No Mac required. Just need an iPhone or iPod Touch to test your site. in reply to johnhilts #
Arrrg! I hate it when I’m stuck on what’s probably an iPhone programming 101 problem. #
@shrtcrt I can’t get my custom UIView subclass to talk to another object. I must be missing something simple. Still have my number? in reply to shrtcrt #
The Twitterific mascot, Ollie, looks pretty cool. I may just have to get one for the office. https://store.iconfactory.com/ #

I wished the LG BD 390 Network Blu-ray Disc Player allowed search in Netflix instead of adding streaming movies from the computer #
This is my Birdhouse. There are many like it, but this one is mine. #
The iWebKit 5 framework looks really interesting for creating iPhone and iPod Touch Web apps. http://iwebkit.net/ #

Any Sumo fans? Asashoryu retires! Sumo is going to be so boring now. I loved watching him wrestle. http://j.mp/b0R7Gu #
FYI. Asashoryu is the Mike Tyson of Sumo. Practically Unbeatable and controversial. http://j.mp/b0R7Gu #
Glad I went to BestBuy for the LG BD 390 Network Blu-ray Disc Player or I would be mad. http://j.mp/cQ4FLy #

@newtoy why is JUNE not an acceptable word? Tried to use it in two recent games and I have both screen captures. #
@newtoy How about creating “Words with Kids”? Been playing with 5yr old daughter who can spell mostly 2-3 letter words. http://bit.ly/8Kcc3y #
Was it something we ate? Is it Kakegosan? Last night both my wife and I had the weirdest and strangest dreams. I should keep a dream log. #
This is the big date Apple fans have waited for to finally satisfy our curiosity. A tablet & iPhone OS 4.0? We shall see at 10:00 AM Pacific #
Anyone know when the Apple ‘Latest Creation’ keynote video will be released for those who could not make it? #
@shrtcrt I hope so. Was following the updates via EnGadget. The pictures look amazing. I just want to see it in action with my own eyes. in reply to shrtcrt #
@shrtcrt I know netflx is planned for the iphone, but no timeframe has been released. I am sure it will work on the iPad as well. in reply to shrtcrt #
finally got around to watching he Apple keynote on the iPad. The device looks amazing. I have get one. My game would look awesome on it! #
downloading the iPhone 3.2 sdk to check out the iPad simulater. Only 1.5 gigs more to go. #
I am off to the Apple store. because I am forced to upgrade my Mac OS. I have to get Snow Leopard to install the new iPhone SDK . #

@mophielovesyou If you like Japanese, but have never had Yakitori, you need to try Hana Zen at 115 Cyril Magnin Street. Awesome Yakitori! in reply to mophielovesyou #
#Dream A frog sitting on my couch watching Star Wars looks over at me and says, “where’s my underwear?” WTF! Hmm. What would Freud say? #

CES was fun, but glad its over. I should have worn tennis! 3D HD TV, Netbooks, Slate/Tablet PCs, and e-book readers were the trends of CES. #
Anyone know of some text-to-speech and speech-to-text technologies for iPhone development? #
Let’s play Words With Friends on the iPhone! My username is ‘WilliamJones’. http://bit.ly/2qbpQ #
I have officially registered for another year in the iPhone developer program. Let the iPhone app count down begin… #
Adobe Flash Professional CS5 will let you publish ActionScript 3 projects to run as native applications for iPhone. http://bit.ly/3RJ6tz #
I though for sure @netflix would have Scott Joplin (1977) with Billy Dee Williams. Can I put in a special order? #
Glad the Stanford iPhone Application Development classes have started up again. This will also help me toward my goal. http://bit.ly/5XIiCI #

Aww crap! A week of vacation goes buy too quickly. San Diego Zoo was really fun, and tiring. Kids loved it. Could have really used a Segway. #
I have 3 iPhones, a Macbook Pro & 10 months in iPhone dev program. Guess what I don’t have? An iPhone App! That is my New Years Resolution. #
@barbalet I felt a bit overwhelmed at first because its so different and so involved. I plan to devote time to it each week. in reply to barbalet #
I am so looking forward to seeing all of the new and interesting gadgets at CES this Saturday #
Doctor said our 1 year old has bronchitis. His survival skills kicked in when we tried to put the nebulizer on him. Not trying to kill you! #
I’m headed to CES. It should be a fun filled day of cool gadgets. #
