I Can Has iPhone App on App Store

Finally, I have my app, called iCanHasLOL published on App Store!
Actually the app was reviewed within 24 hours by Apple, although I’ve heard it would usually take 2 weeks.

I mentioned that I had been writing an iPhone app using Appcelerator before, and an app was almost ready to go. However, I was not able to publish it with the particular contents so I re-wrote the app and re-created some graphics to finish up this brand-new app.

This is free of charge also ad-free (for now, at least!) so get your copy now!

Since the last CES announcement, I have been pretty excited to learn about Palm’s WebOS, been to the meetup and DevCamp, and have created 2 homebrews and co-wrote Net2Streams app.

Now I have joined the human interface team at Palm, inc. It’s awesome I can work with a shiny new toys (Pre and Pixi), also I am happy to keep working on WebKit!
(Plus, it’s cool I constantly bump into my ex-colleagues and friends from Yahoo! in the area!)

iPhone Cocoa App development with JavaScript

By admin  //  App, Dev, Event, iPhone, SDK  //  1 Comment

Hello, I have neglected my blog since September although there have been some blog-worthy events like N900 meetup (plus Droid experience and new Fennec demo. See the videos by Tnkgrl from the link!), California Data Camp, release of Net2Streams Pro (the streaming radio app for Palm WebOS I helped writing) etc… Well, I keep microblogging on Twitter almost daily basis so follow me if you’d like!

One of the interesting I have been independently doing is that writing an app for iPhone with JavaScript, and this time, not an web app but a “native” Cocoa app. Yes I said a native iPhone app in JavaScript! But how? -I used this excellent open-source platform, called Titanium by Appcelerator! Without bothering Obj.C or Java, Titanium allows developers to write iPhone and Android apps with the familiar web technology.

So, as a test run, I have created the iCuteoverload app for iPhone again. (Originally, I made the web app for iPhone, using iUI in 2007)
I will not release this app on AppStore -not because of the technical issue but the agreement with the business decision. (Yes, this app contents are not mine and copyrighted!) But I should be able to show the video capture as a demo to tell you what Titanium can do for web devs like me!
