iPhone web development

I promise I’ll stop talking about the iPhone soon. Like, really ;)

In the meantime – test your site out on the iPhoney – a simulator for testing your site or web application on the iPhone.

Or check out what the iPhone will do by downloading Apple’s 20 minute guided tour. I’ve only made it through to the 5 min mark so far – but even that shows some nice features.

The rest of this post is a bit techy – so if you don’t lean towards the geeky side of the spectrum, you might want to skip to the next one…

Let the iPhone hacking begin

Make Blog: iPhoneDevCamp-iPhone hackers converge on San Francisco on July 6.

Like I said – not long ’till we start seeing some interesting things happening on the iPhone, perhaps even Voice over IP (VoIP).

There’s also some interesting commentary on Ajaxian about the potential for multi-touch interface support in Safari, and how AJAX (that’s a technology that reduces the number of page updates required on a page by only updating smaller parts of the page) will be a good fit on the iPhone due to high telco data charges.

Joining the iPhone dots…

A quick post linking two recent blogs about the iPhone.

It won’t take long for someone to work out how to get Skype on the iPhone, SDK or not. And like iTunes, Apple seem to be taking a “trojan horse” approach – restricting the platform, then working to open it later.

I’m still not sure on the significance of Safari 3 more generally (iPhone fun aside) – I’ve seen very little commentary on it, which is surprising. But the combination of wifi on the iPhone is going to be a bit of a game changer methinks.

Update: interesting take – perhaps Safari is the SDK?
