360iDev – The Speakers – Michael Schneider

July 16, 2009 By Leave a Comment

One of our more popular sessions at 360|iDev San Jose was Michael’s “legal issues in iPhone Development”

And when I say popular I mean, his session was Wednesday, the last slot of the day, and not only was the room full, but people stayed a good 20 minutes or so over. How many conferences does that happen at. Shoot how many let that happen even?!

Michael is back with more awesome advice in a repeat of the session from last time. Repeat’s a strong term, since really it’s just 80 minutes or discussion, going where attendees take it, which is in the end what we love to have happen.

Overview of legal issues facing iPhone developers as they create and bring applications to market. This session tends to be an open Q&A regarding legal and business issues in iPhone development.

If  you’ve got questions about starting your iPhone business, or have already started but have questions, this session is for you. Don’t miss out on all the great content, 40+ sessions! Register now! You’re not going to find this breadth and depth of content at other events, certainly not this affordably! i guarantee! :D

360iDev – The Speakers – Chuck Smith & Judith Meyer

July 15, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Internationalization is a strange beast to be sure. On the one hand, you want to make the best app with world-wide appeal. On the other, you’ve likely only mastered 1 language. Even if you know 2 or 3 languages, you still fall short from covering the gambit.

Here’s the description from Chuck and Judith‘s session entitled “Internationalizing your apps”,

Want more sales outside of the USA, but don’t know where to start? I will show you the ins and outs of each step that must be taken and give guidelines on what you can do to be sure your apps feel local to everyone around the world, including text, images and the interface itself. You will get step by step instructions on how to internationalize any application. Also learn about the language limitations in App Stores around the world and a nice way to find the right translators for your apps.

The world is your stage and these two speakers will insure you can rock it.  Chuck and Judith both live in Germany, with Chuck originally hailing from the States.  In my book, that offers them a bit more street cred in their talk.  Don’t pretend your native language is the only important one out there, because in a global economy you can bet it isn’t.

Register now to grab 1 of the 12 remaining $360 tickets.  Surely, once you’ve conquered internationalization, the new app sales will reimburse you that $360.  Even if you drag your feet and buy after the price increase, world market sales can surely gross $499.  Like the saying goes, “They may not know me in America, but I’m BIG in Japan!”

360iDev – The Speakers – Joe Pezzillo & Dan Burcaw

July 14, 2009 By Leave a Comment

We’ve all seen the app updates with “Tested on 3.0″, we’ve got AIM and Foursquare with push notifications, etc

Ever looked into Apple’s Push Notification? If you thought it was as a simple as flicking a swtich, think again!

Joe Pezzillo and Dan Burcaw will be presenting in September on “Push it Up! Implementing Apple’s Push Notifications for Fun & Profit!”

Dan & Joe walk you through how and why to add push notifications to your application, what’s required on the server side with plenty of working sample code and specific examples to guide you through every step of the process. After showing you how to implement it yourself, they explain how their new company Push.IO is helping developers make it easy to scale.

Enabling Push in your app is just the start and Dan and Joe will show you how to get your application up and running with Push Notifications in no time.
You’ll get no better source than Dan and Joe, at WWDC they launched a joint venture called Push.io which focuses on providing the needed backend to enable Push on your apps. DON’T WORRY. this session won’t be a “Sign up for Push.IO” schill fest, we wouldn’t allow it :) You can attend other conferences if you just want to be sold to.
Register now, while there’s still a few $360 tickets left. They’re going fast and won’t last much longer, then it’s $500! Still a bargain and cheaper than other “iphone” conferences with a fraction of the speakers. Don’t miss out on the premiere iPhone developers conference! Register Now!

360iDev – The Speakers – Brent Simmons

July 13, 2009 By Leave a Comment

We all know who Brent Simmons is, we all use (really? you’re not? What’s your deal?) Net News Wire, or some Newsgator product.

This September in Denver, Brent will be talking about “Building Custom Media Apps with NewsGator’s iPhone Framework”

Not only has Newsgator created an great iPhone RSS reader, but now there’s a framework for building kick ass iPhone apps, from a company that’s no slouch in the ‘kick ass app’ department.

With NewsGator’s iPhone Media App Framework you can easily build iPhone apps like All Things Digital’s, with news, thumbnails, audio, video, and photo galleries. The framework also supports endless customization, from modifying the built-in views to adding entirely new features and user interface. You can use the framework as a foundation: let it handle the basics, so you can spend time on the cool parts of your app.

Make sure you register before the final ‘cheap’ registrations run out. Only $360 before the price goes up to $500. Still a bargain for sure, but why pay more when you can act now! We’re almost out of those tickets! Register Now!
