The folks over at installer.apps have just published a list of their top 50 iphone apps. I’m very pleased to see that MobileCast ranked #7 overall! Thanks to all of you who gave us postive ratings over on installerapps
This is of little relevance to MobileCast users - you’ll probably only find this post of interest if your building an app and want to reuse some source code from mobilecast.
We have had to switch our license from Apache 2.0 to GPLv3. This is because we are now deriving from the GPLv3 code over at [...]
update: 3/17/08 added images.
Staying up to date with the latest & greatest development snapshots of MobileCast just got a whole lot easier. You no longer need to roll your sleeves up & get dirty with ssh as we now have our very own repository which you can add as a source to installer.app on your [...]
Also in our latest svn drop is the first user visible integration with PodGrove. You can now add feeds to mobilecast via podgrove.com saving you having to type them in on the iphones keyboard. Personally I’ve got pretty used to the iphone keyboard for texting & even doing the occasional email but I’ve always found [...]
Thanks to iphone-insomnia mobilecast is now able to keep wifi active while your podcasts are downloading. Please check out the latest svn.
This means that we will probably have to chance our license from Apache to GPLv3, which is something that I’ve got no issue with given the benefit of this new feature
I’m extremely disappointed to hear this.
Heaven knows what this will mean for mobilecast. Hopefull the kick isn’t quite as severe as it appears in the video! We might have to resort to playing everything back through safari … or maybe we’ll find another way around this… perhaps we can integrate with the ipod app… or [...]
We were pressured for years to do a PDA, and I realized one day that 90% of the people who use a PDA only take information out of it on the road. They don’t put information into it. Pretty soon cellphones are going to do that - Steve Jobs
Overall this interview is very interesting & [...]
iLounge are reporting that the SDK will be released today & that “Apple will act as a gatekeeper for applications, deciding which are and are not worthy of release”… hmm I really hope they don’t cripple things with a lengthy approval process. No doubt if they do, then jailbreak will live on… I would have [...]
I just finished listening to the latest episode of TWIT. I was quite interested by the conversation they had about podcast clients in general & how the ipod isn’t the perfect podcast client. The lack of the ability to sync & stream over wifi were highlighted as serious issues. I must admit that I hadn’t [...]
We just implemented a long standing feature request to allow you to stream podcasts rather than download them. I must admit that I wasn’t at all excited by this feature until I implemented it, now I can’t understand how I lived without it! Its absolutely super. If we detect a wifi connection, the play button [...]
