Hello world! Can you tell I’m the programmer yet ?
I wanted to add to the introduction previously posted. I’m Gilly, the more technical programmy part of the Vevent team.
I will be putting up posts with some iPhone programming tips , as well as problems I’ve come accross with (hopefully) solutions.
I have never had a Blog before, so I’m practicing exercising my new voice.
I’ve been learning and developing for the iPhone for about 6 months now. I feel like I’m getting there, but there is still so much to learn! As with any development these days, one of the challenges in learning the platform is not lack of information, but an abundance of it. It takes time to go through the mountains of forums, blogs, documentation, tutorials, etc. It is very easy to get lost. I find that its good to take some time and find resources that you trust and then keep coming back to them.
Also, its amazing how addicted to Google I’ve become. When approached with a new problem, I sometimes find that I Google the question before I try to think of an answer. This is a terrible habit that I’m trying to break. Many times, spending ten minutes with a pen and a piece of paper will beat two hours of searching and clicking and reading.
So, I’ve learned a lot over the last few months. Mostly about how exciting it is to be involved in developing for this platform.
I guess that concludes my somewhat odd introduction to myself.
I’ll be posting a code sample over the next couple of days, I want it to be nice and clean and organized before I share it with the world
