]]>BREAKING: Apple contacts big developers about screen resolutions.http://www.thegeekwire.net/techblog/2010/1/4/breaking-apple-contacts-big-developers-about-screen-resoluti.htmlNolan2010-01-04T20:50:37Z2010-01-04T20:50:37ZI just received word from a developer about the upcoming "Apple Tablet." I received this news around 12:30 PM PST 1/4/10. The following is quoted from the developer himself.

"So, Apple has been contacting the top iPhone developers out there, and telling them to make their applications screen-independent. That means that Apple wants their apps to work on a device that isn't 480 by 320. Also Apple has been doing research on multicore processors (which quite possibly means background applications!). The one downside to all of this is that this means that the device is probably going to work on the Cocoa Touch framework, and not on the Cocoa framework or on a new more powerful framework. On top of all of that, apple has been hiring the top indie mac developers. I speculate that this either means that Apple is wanting to create some amazing games for their new device, or that they want to release a game engine with the tablet which would mean amazingly cool games!"

There you go, so it looks like we will be seeing a device that will be running some sort of iPhone OS 4.0 and not a version of leopard. Still no word about there being flash built into the tablet's browser but this feature could come with the release of 4.0, also price ranges could be from 599 to 799 but this is not for sure.

You heard it here first!

]]>Trick or Tweet?!http://www.thegeekwire.net/techblog/2009/10/30/trick-or-tweet.htmlNolan2009-10-30T23:06:57Z2009-10-30T23:06:57ZSo basically if you have seen the trending hash tag #treat on twitter then you must be wondering what its for. Well the brains down at Twitter HQ have relesed some fun little tricks just for this fattening, ghoulish day of the year. So what you want to do is go to www.twitter.com, (this trick wont work in 3rd party clients) and then in your tweet entry box only type #treat thats it nothing els just the treat hashtag and in just a few seconds your home page should look something like this,

 Now if you enter the hash tag, #trick then the end result would be.

Now note that this will go away in a few seconds and when it is like this no other users on your page will be able to see this. So guys I hope you have fun with this, and also I hope all of you have a safe and fun halloween! Happy trick or twee-AHEM-treating.
