When you develop apps, you use the iOS software development kit (SDK) and Xcode, Apple's integrated development environment (IDE). Xcode provides everything you need to create great apps for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. It includes a source editor, a graphical user interface editor, and many other features-from customizable builds to source repository management. Xcode employs a single window, called the workspace window, that holds most of the data you need. With Xcode, you smoothly transition from writing code, to debugging, to designing your user interface, all within the same window. The iOS SDK extends the Xcode toolset to include the tools, compilers, and frameworks you need specifically for iOS.

"Reid Hoffman and Matt Cohler, two of Silicon Valley's social-networking pioneers, are throwing their hats into the education ring. The entrepreneurs-turned-venture capitalists today led a $15 million investment in Edmodo, a free learning site for teachers and students that claims almost 5 million registered users. The cash pile, from Greylock Partners and Benchmark Capital, gives the management team the runway to hire developers and add products without doing the one thing they prefer not to talk about: making money."

"The lessons employ clever game mechanics to create an effective user experience. I'm like a broken record at this point: designers, filmmakers, and creative communicators of all stripes should to learn how to code. Clever tools and study guides abound for helping non-hackers start getting their hands dirty on the command line. But speaking personally, none of them have done the trick of getting me to actually just do it. Why? Because they're not interactive. Reading a book or watching a video series (no matter how well-designed) just isn't "sticky" enough to get me to stick with it. "

It took me almost 16 years to retrieve and digitize video footage of the late American graphic designer Paul Rand. As an undergraduate student at Art Center College of Design (Europe)* in Montreux, Switzerland, I got introduced to Paul Rand and his wife Marion during a hot and dry summer in 1994. Since I was studying both the basics of film and graphical user interface design, I was asked to shuttle Paul Rand around and to document his visit on campus and his lecture that included a presentation and video (interview with Steve Jobs) about the creation of the NeXT logo.
