Andrew: Hey there Freedom Fighters, my name is Andrew Warner, I’m the founder of Mixergy.com, home of the Ambitious Upstart. And here at the home of the Ambitious Upstart, I believe that there are two kinds of entrepreneurs: those who deal with inner doubt, and those who lie to themselves and pretend that they […]
With rumors swirling about a bigger iPhone 6, I figured I’d touch on them (haha, puns). A few years ago, I thought the idea of a larger iPhone would be something I disliked. With my small-ish hands, even the iPhone 5’s 4 inch screen is too large for me to reach the back button in […]
If you’re writing an iOS app and you need to know the user’s current location, the answer is straightforward: use Core Location. That fires up device GPS (when available). Apple’s A-GPS combines this with things like local Wifi networks and IP addresses to work out the device’s location. All of this, of course, assuming that […]

If you order now you can probably have your copy before I get mine. […]
In this latest installment of my iCloud series I’ll be taking a look at real world iCloud. Not in the sense of how you should write code to make effective use of iCloud, but in the sense of finding out how people are actually using it in real shipping apps. This was one of my […]
In today’s installment of my continuing series on using iCloud with Core Data I’m going to discuss how factors beyond your control may render iCloud unusable, even if everything is working normally. Even if everything is working correctly, the current API can still require complex workarounds to get decent app performance. Through this, keep in […]
Andrew: Three questions before I fire you up with another great interview. First, if you need a video for your site to help increase conversions and make more sales, who do you turn to? Revolution Productions. Their videos make it easy for customers to understand your product. End, even though they’re inexpensive, Revolution Production […]
