ESPN commissioned me to develop a universal iOS App to keep users up-to-date with ESPN Press Releases, Twitter account updates and photos on iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.
Features Include:
- Read ESPN’s most up-to-date Press Releases
- Email press releases directly from the ESPN MediaZone app.
Browse, share and upload Facebook photos. Update you status, add comments and check out your friend’s walls.
Facebook Chat with your friends all on one screen!
With multi-user login support, filter by friend list or group and instant message notification, Buddies Chat is the must have Facebook Chat experience!
Featured by Apple in over 50 AppStores Worldwide, Buddies is a hugely popular native Facebook browser for iPad receiving some great reviews:

TheNextWeb.com: ★★★★ “Buddies is pretty much what an official Facebook app would look like.”
MacStories.net: “An excellent companion to the regular website which offers neat photo uploading capabilities (something you can’t do on Mobile Safari) and multi-account support”

As per the title, I’m going to be speaking about iPad Development at the next Brighton iPhone Creators Meetup. Here are a few details about the event:
Presenting: iPad Development: New Challenges and Opportunities for iPhone Devs
When: Tuesday 21st @ 7pm
Where: The Skiff, 6 Gloucester Street, Brighton, BN1 4EW
I’ve been primarily asked to talk about iPad development so that’s going to be the main feature in my 20/30 min presentation. How iPad development creates new challenges (User Experience, Development for multiple iDevices etc) and opportunities for iPhone Devs (increased sales, AppStore rankings).
I’m also planning to share some of my experiences of developing for the AppStore such as tips on how to improve your app reviews and ratings and how to avoid some of the mistakes I’ve already made 
That’s it for now… Gotta get on with my latest app idea
Just came across this great video review of the latest version of my iPad photography app Portfolio To Go for Flickr. If you want to preview all the new features I’ve added in a recent app update this review from Adorama TV covers most of them
Portfolio to Go for Flickr has just been approved for sale by Apple and is now availabile for iPad on the App Store.
A recent winner of Apple’s ‘iPad App of the Week’ award, Portfolio To Go features an elegant and intuitive photo-wall giving users instant access to all of their Flickr photosets: scroll each gallery horizontally to browse thumbs, scroll vertically to traverse through all synced galleries.
The main purpose of Portfolio To Go is to enable photographers to present their portfolio offline to clients – perfect for use with iPad wi-fi: just sync and go. Photographers create and edit photosets on Flickr.com and Portfolio To Go acts as a presentation tool, keeping in sync with all your Flickr changes.
Portfolio To Go supports all iPad rotations so can be flipped vertically for portraits and horizontally for landscapes.
Another unique selling point of this app is the ‘Send Portfolio to a Client’ feature. The Photographer picks and chooses which of his galleries to share and can then send an auto-generated email to clients and friends containing a free download link to ‘Portfolio To Go Player’ iPad App. By clicking the emailed link clients launch the photographer’s portfolio on their own iPad(s).
Check out this great video review of Portfolio To Go on iPad. Mark Wallace from Adorama TV takes you through most of the key features of the app
