  • Apple Hiding Issues from Public View, due to ‘Image’ concern?

    Although this is not a new occurrence, In a recent post over at Mac Rumors, member Mcdj notes:

    “In a Google search for answers to the problems I described in this post, I came across a page on the Apple discussion boards. When I clicked the link, it came up as a non-existent page on the discussion board…i.e. the post had been deleted. I went back and clicked Google’s cached version of the page. I expected to find a long flame war or profanity laden rants…the kind of stuff Apple usually yanks.

    Instead, I found this…

    Why would Apple go out of their way to delete a seemingly innocuous post?” …

  • Lumen for iPhone. – [Updated]

    [Update – 02.09.08] – (14.26pm GMT)

    It seems Bridger has gone one step further. In an attempt to get people interested in Lumen’s new revised UI, he is now including it within the free version of the application, Lumen Lite! [App Store].

    [Update – 02.09.08] – (12.27pm GMT)

    “Thanks for the coverage! Your review is great.
    It is always cool to hear from someone who enjoys playing Lumen.

    I have to give credit where it is due though. Adam Betts was the artist who redesigned the interface. To be honest I didn’t even give him any guidelines on what needed changing on the interface. He completely came up with everything himself. He spotted many UI flaws that Lumen had and fixed them without any instruction from me. He also was great about communicating his progress, delivering very on time, and charged a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.”

    Thank You,
    Bridger Maxwell

  • Breaking: Gameloft’s Asphalt 4 Elite Racing, Now Available for iPhone!! – [Updatedx3]

    [Updatex3] – 31.08.08 (12.52pm GMT)

    The game does support “steering”:

    “The game does indeed support iPhone “steering”. Once you have started a game, click the iPod icon in the upper left corner of the screen, and you can choose from one of three different playing modes.

    Enjoy!”

    Thanks JW (Comment)

    [Updatex2] – 30.08.08 (18.17pm GMT)

    Ok, on first launch it sent the iPhone into a soft reset – but that’s not to say that was Gameloft’s fault, just yet, it could be instability with software 2.0. Secondly, the App Store description states you can control your car by steering the iPhone – based on the accelerometer. Now, it may just be me, but I’ve yet to find that functionality – Game play is currently controlled by touch gestures.

    Has anyone been able to figure this out? – Maybe Gameloft can chip-in at this point? …

  • 2008 Trends: Stealing Content.

    Chances are, now-a-days you have, or have had, your own blog or website to call your ‘own’. Now, I’m pretty sure if your serious about blogging, you currently spend hours on end trying to think of the next big thing, or next thought-provoking, slightly controversial article, right? – At the end of the day, you want one thing – Traffic.

    In 2007, Nick La of N.Design Studio, showed how his vector creations had not only been publicly broadcast on two Bosnia & Herzegovina TV stations, they had been broadcast without his original permission or knowledge. I’m talking about a wealthy TV company here, who didn’t want to spend their own money investing in in-house designers, and so stole works from the internet in an attempt to create a TV spot on the cheap. Get this – he later found his own canvas prints printed out onto canvas’s and being sold in a local shopping mall! …

    [Update – 26.08.08]

    Thank you to everyone who contacted me.
    If your still interested, drop me at razorianfly@gmail.com

    Original Article:
    I am looking for a highly-talented iPhone developer to develop and design a simple iPhone application directed at grabbing content from this blog. This new application will be coined ‘RazorianFly Mobile’. The idea being, the app will provide an easy, and clean, interface to read Razorianfly, while mobile, and will be available to everyone, worldwide, through Apple’s App Store. The application will be set out in a list form, and would update over Wifi, Edge and 3G. I imagine it would be easy to develop, but unfortunately I’m lacking C+ programming experience. Currently, I’m thinking of going with the same sort of user interface that WordPress for iPhone [App Store] offers – without the editing abilities …
