Objective-Cologne 2012 Videos: Buy the Whole Set and Get Over 23% Off! - Published on 11/07/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Objective-Cologne, the acclaimed Objective-C/Cocoa Conference in the hearth of Europe has put online each session video. Each one goes for 9 Euro, approximately $12.00 USD. There is the whole pack for 69 Euro - that's about $89.00. Furthermore, both Panels are free to download. Those also gives conference video viewers a good insight at which speaker, letting them decide who/what they'd like to spend their money on.
Kerpen, Germany - Via it's website, the Objective-Cologne conference, which happened in September, delivers all the sessions that were recorded on those 2 days.
The conference, which will definitely happen again in September 2013, was a huge success, and Manuel "StuFF mc" Carrasco Molina, the conference "mc" (read: organiser) is proud to release those videos at a fair price of 9 Euro (~ $12) each.
That's not all. You can get EVERY video of this year for only 69 Euro (~ $89.00 USD). Compared to the 439 Euro price that the conference was (early bird was 399 Euro), that gives you the ability to do the conference from the comfort of your Sofa for less the $90.00!
Also, one might note that some videos are free. Among those, the 2 conference Panels that happened on both days, plus 2 smaller "insight" videos that show you how the food was at lunch time and dinner. This also gives you a good hint at the Networking possibilities during the conference.
Be sure to check the website, as well as follow us on Twitter and subscribe to our Mailing list to get the news about future events, like the 2013 edition - and maybe some other news.
It's important to note that each video can be previewed (at least one minute, sometimes 3 minutes!) before you spend the money. Also, if anyone has a question, do not hesitate on getting in touch.
Finally, we'd like to mention that we are open to sponsoring, although we do want to keep this "non obtrusive" to keep the conference "noise clean".

Extreme Skating and Battling Game with 8-Bit Graphics for iOS and Mac - Published on 11/07/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Fryza announces a Kickstarter campaign for Retro Skate. Retro Skate takes the best selling features of top retro games, adds realistic skateboarding, and mixes it with AAA, multi-platform quality. The game features many levels, co-op multiplayer battling, extreme skateboarding tricks, boss battles, achievements, and a level editor. Retro Skate combines awesome arcade adventure style with 4 person co-op multiplayer, and an 8-Bit world. Retro Skate will be deployed to iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Salt Lake City, Utah - As gaming technology advances games become more involved and flashy. It takes a lot of guts to build a game with 8-Bit, NES style graphics and compete against such glamorous games, but that is exactly what Fryza is doing with Retro Skate on their Kickstarter campaign.
After building apps and games for clients for a few years, Mark Price (28) and Kevin Flint (25) decided to go back to their gaming roots and build Retro Skate. Not just another flick and smash, one-hit-wonder kind of game, Retro Skate takes the best selling features of top retro games like Double Dragon and TMNT, adds realistic skateboarding, and mixes it with AAA, multi-platform quality.
"Retro Skate takes the awesome arcade adventure style of games like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, adds 4 person co-op multiplayer, immerses the player in an 8-Bit world, and lands itself on multiple gaming platforms," says Price.
The game features many levels, co-op multiplayer battling, extreme skateboarding tricks, boss battles, achievements, and a level editor. Retro Skate will be deployed to iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Could this be the kind of old-school game that iOS and Mac gamers have been wanting for years? Yes, but without the funds to sustain the team while they put off contract work and develop the game it may never hit the App Store.
Being veteran game designers, Mark and Kevin knew that there would be no way for their team to develop such a large scale game without putting off the client work, earning some funding, and focusing solely on Retro Skate. "We know better than to try and build a game on the side while doing other work. It would never receive the proper love and attention it needs and Retro Skate can't be anything less than amazing," says Flint. This is why they've decided to run a Kickstarter campaign to crowdsource the $15,000 USD required to pay the developers, secure the proper marketing push, and build out the game.
Kickstarter campaigns function under an "all-or-nothing" funding model so if Retro Skate doesn't reach its goal at the end of 30 days then no funding is received. Follow Price and Flint on Twitter and Facebook or go to their Kickstarter campaign to check for updates and progress on Retro Skate. Campaign donors can donate as little as $2.00 and receive rewards such as t-shirts, hoodies, real skateboards, toys, and more.

Marble Math 1.2 Update Adds International Currencies - Published on 11/08/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Artgig Apps announces Marble Math 1.2, adding international currencies and iPhone 5 support to their popular kids math practice app. Geared for ages 9-12 and up, Marble Math helps reinforce strategy and problem solving skills in a math maze. The object of Marble Math is to solve a variety of math problems by collecting numbers as a player rolls or drags their marble through a series of mazes. Users can now choose from Australian, Canadian, British and Euro currencies to practice counting money.
Pleasantville, New York - Artgig Apps is pleased to announce the release of Marble Math 1.2, adding international currencies and iPhone 5 optimization to their popular kids math practice app. Geared for ages 9-12 and up and based on the Common Core Curriculum, Marble Math helps reinforce strategy and problem solving skills as players roll their marble through a math maze. Users can now choose from Australian, Canadian, British and Euro currencies to practice counting money.
Common Sense Media recently selected Marble Math for their Spotlight on Learning, describing the app as "...one of the most fun, customizable, and effective math games available for older elementary school-age kids."
The object of Marble Math is to solve a variety of math problems by collecting numbers as a player rolls or drags their marble through a series of mazes. Young mathematicians earn new marbles as they avoid obstacles and collect bonuses while working through the problems. There is no time limit - children can work at their own pace, and if they get an answer wrong, they have the opportunity to see the correct solution and then try again.
"Our goal is to make Marble Math as flexible as possible to adapt to the specific needs of each individual learner" says Artgig President Matthew Kicinski. "We've had many user requests outside of the United States for additional currency options so we made this update a priority. We also also took the opportunity to optimize the game graphics for the larger screen real estate of the iPhone 5."
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 62.6 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Marble Math 1.2 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Lost in Rome? These apps could get you back on the road - Published on 11/08/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Italian iOS developer, Fabrizio Bartolomucci announces the latest versions of his comprehensive suite of iOS travel apps. The suite makes navigating Rome simple using bus, metro or taxi providing a location-aware mapping system and a secure taxi booking and dispatch service. easily navigate the 8000 bus stops dotted across the city and obtain up-to-the minute details of each bus location. The In Arrivo apps are complimented by Taxi Professional, which notifies taxi drivers of customer bookings.
Rome, Italy - Italian iOS developer Fabrizio Bartolomucci is pleased to announce release of the latest versions of his comprehensive travel suite designed to make getting around the city of Rome simple and intuitive. Building upon the success of the original In Arrivo app, Bartolomucci has expanded his portfolio to create a travel toolkit which will help tourists and commuters navigate the major metropolitan areas of the Eternal City.
"When working on In Arrivo I quickly realised that travellers in Rome may need access to more than just information on using the municipal bus service," said lead developer Bartolomucci, "many tourists and commuters prefer using the metro system or the privacy of taxis. Working with many taxi drivers and firms across Rome, we have created a comprehensive travel booking service which accounts for these people's travel needs."
In Arrivo HD is designed for travellers and allows them to navigate the 8000 bus stops dotted across the city and obtain up-to-the minute details of each bus location. In Arrivo also helps passengers decide how long they have between buses and even which side of the road they need to wait on.
Similar functionality has been added to show locations of metro stations and train times, adding additional travel options for users. Route plans can be created in advance including full details of any departure and arrival times, and where changes on metro lines must be made. The entire route is mapped using the new Apple Maps engine allowing a clear visual overview as the journey progresses along with a list of waypoints and detailed instructions regarding changes and route numbers.
The latest release of In Arrivo is also one of the few apps available that allows public transport directions from within Apple Maps using the new iOS6 Routing Apps feature. Simply enter your destination in Apple Maps, tap the public transport icon and then select in Arrivo HD to perform the navigation.
A number of important new enhancements have been added to increase app responsiveness for convenience and to minimise the potential data roaming costs. Details of bus stops and bus routes are now cached on the iPad or iPhone to reduce app loading time and mobile data usage. By dragging important bus stops to the top of the screen users can also create an easy-to-access list of bookmarks.
Version 4.5 of In Arrivo also allows specific taxis to be bookmarked allowing travellers to easily locate and book a particular driver. Taxi drivers who use the accompanying Taxi Professional app may also like to recommend that their clients bookmark their service for quick access in future.
Companion app In Arrivo Express has been designed for iPhone users who just need accurate arrival and departure times for their journeys. A slimmed down app provides the bare-bones required to travel across Rome, making it a smartphone companion to the full-service HD app. A simplified display shows the progress of buses and taxis allowing at-a-glance updates of buses and taxis without the additional information such as bus stops and metro stations as shown in The HD app. As the name implies, In Arrivo Express is for travellers who need to get moving quickly.
"Recent changes to the ATAC transportation system have required us to implement a proxy server system to fulfill customer requests," said Bartolomucci, "the ATAC servers which provide transit data have been adjusted to prevent visitors to Rome making repeated web searches effectively shutting tourists out of the system. The use of a proxy allows In Arrivo users to access bus and train data as they require - we have even included a quick refresh icon to 'unlock' the ATAC data for yourself and other In Arrivo users should the transit authority system block the app from accessing data. As far as we know, In Arrivo is the only app currently available which circumvents this limitation for the benefit of travelers."
The In Arrivo apps are complimented by Taxi Professional, which notifies Roman taxi drivers of customer bookings. When a user taps and books a taxi, the driver of the selected vehicle receives instant notification on their own iOS device of who they are collecting and from where. The fact that In Arrivo is a paid-for app provides also drivers with some protection against no-shows, wasted journeys and fake bookings.
"Taxi Professional offers cab drivers in Rome a way to guarantee bookings and makes it very easy to locate and identify passengers," said Bartolomucci, "Using Taxi Professional there is no need for a costly booking system to be installed in their home or office - everything is delivered directly between the customer and the driver, no other software is required. Best of all, Bartolomucci continued, is that Taxi Professional and In Arrivo can now be used to book a cab anywhere in the world. Wherever drivers have signed up to the Taxi Professional service, customers can book a ride."
In Arrivo HD v4.5, In Arrivo Express v1.5 and Taxi Professional v1.2 are compatible with all devices running iOS 5.1 and higher and require a live internet connection to operate correctly. A useful on-screen counter built into the app helps users keep track of their data usage and avoid unexpected roaming charges.
Live updates, support and suggestions for the In Arrivo suite can be found on the Facebook fanpage managed by Fabrizio Bartolomucci. Existing users of In Arrivo are encouraged to leave reviews on iTunes to assist other travellers in Rome locate this comprehensive transport planning toolkit.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AppFolio is proud to introduce the artistic works of Thomas M. Overton, prisoner #911193 on Florida death row. Death Row Drawings 1.0 for iOS is now available in the App Store.

Amsterdam, Netherlands - AppFolio is proud to introduce the artistic works of Thomas M. Overton, prisoner #911193 on Florida death row. Death Row Drawings 1.0 for iOS is now available in the App Store.
Do you also know those people that never get something done? Because they have:
* No time
* No energy
* Not the right equipment
* No proper studio
* No money
* No peace
* No luck
The only thing they have are excuses. Because there are still people who can create out of nothing.
Thomas M. Overton #911193 is imprisoned on death row in Florida. He spends his time corresponding with people he never met, and making drawings with the few materials that he possesses.
I am such a person that writes with him, and that has received a good deal of his drawings. Some of them show such artistry and skill, that I wanted to publish them. That's why I made a mobile portfolio, especially for iPad, that can be downloaded from the AppStore from November 5th onwards. For iPhone and for iPad.
There are still questions concerning his guilt, but apart from that this is a beautiful art collection.
The app features:
* 24 original, never published drawings
* Outstanding artwork
* A mobile portfolio for iPad
* Made on Florida death row
* After download no internet connection required to view the portfolio
* Send e-cards and tweets from the app
* Save to Photo's and set as wall paper
* Read the comments of the artist
* All iPad orientations supported
* Optimized for the retina screen
Device Requirements:
* iOS 5.0 or later
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad 1/2/3

Amsterdam, Netherlands - AppFolio is proud to introduce the artistic works of Thomas M. Overton, prisoner #911193 on Florida death row. Death Row Drawings 1.0 for iOS is now available in the App Store.
Do you also know those people that never get something done? Because they have:
* No time
* No energy
* Not the right equipment
* No proper studio
* No money
* No peace
* No luck
The only thing they have are excuses. Because there are still people who can create out of nothing.
Thomas M. Overton #911193 is imprisoned on death row in Florida. He spends his time corresponding with people he never met, and making drawings with the few materials that he possesses.
I am such a person that writes with him, and that has received a good deal of his drawings. Some of them show such artistry and skill, that I wanted to publish them. That's why I made a mobile portfolio, especially for iPad, that can be downloaded from the AppStore from November 5th onwards. For iPhone and for iPad.
There are still questions concerning his guilt, but apart from that this is a beautiful art collection.
The app features:
* 24 original, never published drawings

seyDesign's new Sytten RapidWeaver Theme Turns Heads - Published on 11/08/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Long time RapidWeaver theme and add-on developers, seyDesign, have just released their latest creation called Sytten. It's a clean, responsive-ready RapidWeaver theme with a big and bold interface sure to make a lasting impression on visitors. A slight departure from past seyDesign offerings, Sytten focuses largely on fonts, lush background-images and a unique navigation system to tie together a spacious and highly refined design.
Kitchener, Canada - Long time RapidWeaver theme and add-on developers, seyDesign, have just released their latest creation called Sytten. It's a clean, responsive-ready RapidWeaver theme with a big and bold interface sure to make a lasting impression on visitors. A slight departure from past seyDesign offerings, Sytten focuses largely on fonts, lush background-images and a unique navigation system to tie together a spacious and highly refined design.
The heart of the Sytten design beats around a bold and beautiful top header that is dominated by a big logo, strong title and supportive slogan. The flexibility of the top area can be seen with a plethora of tiles and textures, variable title and slogan font sizes and enough space to host virtually any size logo. The header can also be used to house the built in social icons as well as the animated, semi-transparent top level of the 3-tier SmartNav system.
The true beauty of the top header is revealed when the vistas are selected as a top background. These RWmultitool-editable images are vast and scale to cover the entire top space responsively, looking great on any screen. With selectable filters and masks, it's possible to fine tune any vista to have the right look. The top header space doesn't have to dominate the layout either. The header will scale accordingly when presented with a smaller logo file and reduced title and slogan font sizes. Forgoing the use of social links as well as selecting the right SmartNav settings can further decrease the top header height, making it no bigger then your average title bar.
In addition to a standard set of web-safe fonts, Sytten comes preloaded with some of the finest examples of Google web fonts around. The fonts were hand-selected to work seamlessly and beautifully together, each one being a perfect compliment to the next. Select different fonts for the body, the title, slogan, navigation and headings. Also built-in to Sytten is the Font Awesome library - a fun set of scalable icons to dress up copy with graphical flourishes.
Some of Sytten's other features include:
* Responsive-ready
* Width adjustment
* Top background / effect
* Logo on / off
* 3-tier SmartNav with drop menus
* SS3 slide show
* Sidebar width / position
* Font family / size
* Line height
* Full color control
True to form for seyDesign, Sytten includes the core framework of features they are known for, including SmartNav, SS3, ExtraContent, SmartAlbums, SmartLayout and much more. Sytten has a full compliment of color and layout options making this theme a flexible fit for a great many applications. Sytten is more then a RapidWeaver theme, it's a utility of unmatched ability and stunning looks.

What Apple Isn't Saying About Books For iPad - Free Download - Published on 11/08/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
"What Apple Isn't Saying About Books For iPad" was released to educate the public about the emerging technology that was designed to revolutionize the teaching and learning processes. Schoolchildren, teachers, maintenance workers and parents themselves increasingly are learning from the type of multi-touch interactive books for iPad and iPad mini that are being produced by Dallas publisher Claxton Creative, LLC.
Dallas, Texas - Schoolchildren, teachers, maintenance workers and parents themselves increasingly are learning from the type of multi-touch interactive books for iPad and iPad mini that are being produced by a Dallas publisher, and in some areas are exploring ways to generate content where learners must demonstrate topic mastery before advancing to the next.
Claxton Creative, LLC, the leading publisher in Dallas of the new "books" Steve Jobs was developing before his death last year, Thursday released "What Apple Isn't Saying About Books For iPad" as a way to educate the public about the emerging technology that was designed to revolutionize the teaching and learning processes.
"Up to the end, Steve Jobs was working on this new form of a 'book' that now is revolutionizing the educational process around the world," said Publisher and Author, Donald Claxton, who also served as the communications director for Dallas schools from 2001-2006. "The iPad mini is being marketed to increase the rate of adoption of iOS tablets in schools. Yet we are finding many parents still are unaware of how the learning process is changing for their kids and they are going to be amazed when the find out."
In August, this North Texas company, along with Dr. Mark Van Stone of Southwestern College in San Diego, released "2012: Science and Prophecy of the Ancient Maya," which now is available on the iBookstore and being prepared for an upcoming course on iTunes U to be taken worldwide by students of all ages.
"When was the last time you read a book that included two hours of video from 15 Maya scholars and had 3D animations of Maya artifacts that are 1,200 years old? We made this new 'book' in Dallas and it's now on sale in 50 countries, including the entire South American continent. That's never been possible before 2012 and something not even the ancient Maya could have predicted. But like much of what has been lost about the ancient Maya, many are not yet aware of what can be done on these books for iPad."
Claxton said his company is negotiating with industry leaders about production of new materials as well as talking to major universities and school districts about how to escalate the rapid adoption of these new books. He also said tremendous opportunities exist in aircraft and industrial maintenance as well as corporate training.
"If you're on a ladder looking at a jet engine that needs repair, which would you rather use as a guide, a 3-inch binder or an iPad mini strapped to your arm that weighs a little more than a half-pound? With these books, a technician can watch videos and study interactive photographs and drawings of what the working part is supposed to look like and follow the sequential steps in how to fix it," Claxton said.
Claxton said books for the iPad have moved beyond the promotional and theoretical stage. School districts around the country are buying the units in rapidly increasing numbers.
For instance, a Nov. 5, 2012 issue from Time magazine cited examples of the New York City Public School system ordering more than 2,000 iPads for $1.3 million, the Virginia Department of Education spending $150,000 for an iPad initiative in 11 schools, and Chicago public schools spending $450,000 for 23 district-funded iPad grants.
"When Apple made the iPad mini announcement in October the pundits said it was to combat the rise in the Kindle Fire because of its cost," Claxton said. "The real story is that a school superintendent with $1 million to spend pre-iPad mini could buy 2,000 units. With the iPad mini being $179 cheaper, they can now buy 3,000 units for the same amount of money. An added bonus is that kids' fingers work very well on the smaller units."
Books for the iPad and iPad mini include 3D animations, videos, multi-touch interactive images, puzzles, in-chapter quizzes, study guide notecards and now, with the release of the iBooks 3 app - social media capabilities that mean a student can ask a peer, teacher, parent or even the author themselves for assistance if they come across a section in a book they don't understand.
"We want parents, teachers, administrators and corporate managers to see how this new technology can make a dramatic difference in how their children learn for the rest of their lives," Claxton said. "What Apple Isn't Saying About Books For iPad is offered for free downloading off our site to help educate why these books are so different from anything else they've ever seen."
The book released Thursday includes 10 videos, a spooky 3D animation of the Maya Rio Azul Mask, a multi-touch image that demonstrates the new social media functions in the iBooks 3 app, an interactive map that shows the developmental patterns of ancient Mesoamerican cultures, and even a digital sliding puzzle of the book's cover.
"We are in the middle of something huge for education, training and the spread of knowledge around the world. This isn't a gold rush; it's a gold landslide and few seem to realize it is even happening," Claxton said.
Claxton said his company is putting the final touches on a children's book for the iPad entitled, There's A Zombie In My Treehouse, by authors Ken Plume and John Robinson of Atlanta. The book, which previously has been featured in WIRED, has 16 different readers tell the story, including some famous movie personalities, like Peter Serafinowicz, best known for his voice as the Sith Lord Darth Maul in "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace."
Over the next 10 days, Claxton Creative will feature a particular aspect of the book for the benefit of those who still do not own an iPad. Each day, a new topic will be presented, complete with a short video also featuring a characteristic of these new books available only on the iPad and iPad mini.

But like much of what has been lost about the ancient Maya, many are not yet aware of what can be done on these books for iPad."
Claxton said his company is negotiating with industry leaders about production of new materials as well as talking to major universities and school districts about how to escalate the rapid adoption of these new books. He also said tremendous opportunities exist in aircraft and industrial maintenance as well as corporate training.
"If you're on a ladder looking at a jet engine that needs repair, which would you rather use as a guide, a 3-inch binder or an iPad mini strapped to your arm that weighs a little more than a half-pound? With these books, a technician can watch videos and study interactive photographs and drawings of what the working part is supposed to look like and follow the sequential steps in how to fix it," Claxton said.
Claxton said books for the iPad have moved beyond the promotional and theoretical stage. School districts around the country are buying the units in rapidly increasing numbers.
For instance, a Nov. 5, 2012 issue from Time magazine cited examples of the New York City Public School system ordering more than 2,000 iPads for $1.3 million, the Virginia Department of Education spending $150,000 for an iPad initiative in 11 schools, and Chicago public schools spending $450,000 for 23 district-funded iPad grants.
"When Apple made the iPad mini announcement in October the pundits said it was to combat the rise in the Kindle Fire because of its cost," Claxton said. "The real story is that a school superintendent with $1 million to spend pre-iPad mini could buy 2,000 units. With the iPad mini being $179 cheaper, they can now buy 3,000 units for the same amount of money. An added bonus is that kids' fingers work very well on the smaller units."
Books for the iPad and iPad mini include 3D animations, videos, multi-touch interactive images, puzzles, in-chapter quizzes, study guide notecards and now, with the release of the iBooks 3 app - social media capabilities that mean a student can ask a peer, teacher, parent or even the author themselves for assistance if they come across a section in a book they don't understand.
"We want parents, teachers, administrators and corporate managers to see how this new technology can make a dramatic difference in how their children learn for the rest of their lives," Claxton said. "What Apple Isn't Saying About Books For iPad is offered for free downloading off our site to help educate why these books are so different from anything else they've ever seen."
The book released Thursday includes 10 videos, a spooky 3D animation of the Maya Rio Azul Mask, a multi-touch image that demonstrates the new social media functions in the iBooks 3 app, an interactive map that shows the developmental patterns of ancient Mesoamerican cultures, and even a digital sliding puzzle of the book's cover.
"We are in the middle of something huge for education, training and the spread of knowledge around the world. This isn't a gold rush; it's a gold landslide and few seem to realize it is even happening," Claxton said.
Claxton said his company is putting the final touches on a children's book for the iPad entitled, There's A Zombie In My Treehouse, by authors Ken Plume and John Robinson of Atlanta. The book, which previously has been featured in WIRED, has 16 different readers tell the story, including some famous movie personalities, like Peter Serafinowicz, best known for his voice as the Sith Lord Darth Maul in "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace."
Over the next 10 days, Claxton Creative will feature a particular aspect of the book for the benefit of those who still do not own an iPad. Each day, a new topic will be presented, complete with a short video also featuring a characteristic of these new books available only on the iPad and iPad mini.
