iOS Programming: The Big Nerd Ranch Guide (2nd Edition)
Published on August 5th, 2011 by joet3ch. Filed under Stuff We Like | No CommentsWe read the original 1st edition of The Big Nerd Ranch Guide for iPhone programming last year and it provided a solid foundation for learning the ropes of iPhone development.
A couple weeks ago, The Big Nerd Ranch released the updated 2nd edition. I’m very pleased with the updated content. The book follows along the same lessons and example apps, but the authors took the feedback from readers and used it to improve this version. The 1st edition was targeted primarily at iPhone development where this version now covers iOS in a whole and includes some iPad specifics as well.
This is a worthwhile read for any newbie or experienced iOS developer.

Blue Microphones Yeti USB Microphone
Published on July 30th, 2011 by joet3ch. Filed under Stuff We Like | No CommentsWe record the Opinionated Tech Podcast with this exact microphone, the Yeti USB Mic from Blue Microphones. Usually its sitting on the table in front of us plugged into a MacBook pro.
No complaints, even the heavy weight is awesome. While we don’t have experience with any other pro-grade mic’s, we’re not inclined to try any others since the Blue is perfect for us.
The Yeti Mic is available at Amazon
