In the early days, the third-party ecosystem was a playground, in which developers could, and did, come up with uses for the service that were never intended or dreamed of by Twitter itself. You like the word ‘tweet’? The bird icon? The character counter? The replies and conversations features? A nice native client on the iPhone? All done first by third-party developer Iconfactory with its Twitterrific app.1
To me, this is still the very thing that makes Twitter appealing. I’m a happy Twitterrific user, not a happy Twitter user. If third party clients would disappear, it’s very possible that I might stop using Twitter.

In other words, Facebook silently inserted themselves into the path of formerly-direct unencrypted communications from people who want to email me. In other contexts, this is known as a Man In The Middle (MITM) attack. What on earth do they think they are playing at?1
Customer or cattle?

In a real-world test (”clean build Adium”) my 2.7Ghz i7 Protina just bested my 3.33Ghz 6-core Westmere by 2 seconds.
Holy. Shit.1
Holy shit, indeed.

From MacWorlds ”Hands on with the Retina MacBook Pro:
(Keep in mind, the original MacBook Air was another $2000-plus product that arrived a bit early, but within a few years the Air had become the lowest-cost, most mainstream Apple laptop. This is the path this new MacBook Pro is now on.)1
I agree! Competitors to Apple should definitely start their copiers and start churning out Retina MacBook Pro knock-offs, because it’s likely the direction the computer world will head in pretty soon.

In Episode #54 of Developing Perspective David Smith talks about why he thinks Apple more or less confirmed that the new iPhone will have a bigger screen.
Developing Perspective is a podcast discussing news of note in iOS Development, Apple and the like. Never longer than 15 minutes.1
If you’re interested in mobile development in general, or iOS development and/or Apple in particular you should definitely check out Developing Perspective. It’s short, focused and states a clear opinion.

Finally, it’s here. You can now upload photos and videos from the Photo Library using a regular input element. This was previously only possible via the use of Phonegap etc.
This is a real game changer for mobile apps.1
Apple unveiled a lot of interesting things at the start of their WWDC this Monday. There’s been a lot of talk about new hardware, hardware that weren’t updated and new things in Mountain Lion and iOS but the fact that it seems like Safari in iOS 6 will support the <input type=”file” /> element has largely been overlooked.
I myself have a couple of ideas of apps that I’d like to build, but I don’t have the knowledge necessary to build them in Objective C and I currently don’t have the time to acquire that knowledge. I do, however, have the knowledge necessary to do those things using HTML, CSS and JavaScript with a PHP backend. The problem with this is that web apps in iOS can’t do some of the things that native apps can. For example, up until now it’s been impossible to upload pictures taken with your iPhone to your blog/web page/facebook/twitter etc. without using a natively built client.
To me, ”this changes everything”. Enabling the same (limited) access to the filesystem from web apps as from native apps is a huge boost for those of us that has an interest in web technologies. I can’t wait to try it out for real.2

A letter from Tim Cook(!) to a Mac user.
Franz,
Thanks for your email. Our Pro customers like you are really important to us. Although we didn’t have a chance to talk about a new Mac Pro at today’s event, don’t worry as we’re working on something really great for later next year. We also updated the current model today.

Tim
