Textie.me is an app like What’s App. It looks pretty nice, and the ad-suppoted version is free. Let’s try it out.
Update: I found there’s more after trying it out. It can send your message as an Email if the recipient is not using Textie. The most amazing thing is that Textie can handle your mail conversation (sent out first via Textie) as a Textie conversation. That’s just cool!

Daring Fireball: New iPhone Developer Agreement Bans the Use of Adobe's Flash-to-iPhone Compiler →
John Gruber at Daring Fireball indicated that Apple is banning “applications that link to Documented APIs through an intermediary translation or compatibility layer or tool” via its new license agreement came out with iPhone OS 4.0.
I was pretty confused, and couldn’t see why this is necessary. I don’t think those apps not written purely in Obj-C, C++, C and JavaScript would do any harm to the App Store: instead, I think the banned ways may enrich the App Store, since they enables developers who may not be familiar with the languages on the white list.
I just think it’s too mean to kill the ways to App Store, no matter whether it was intended to destroy Adobe’s Flash CS5 or not.
Update: Gruber has his view of this license change here.

Opera Mini 5 on the iPhone (via operasoftware)
The comparison video shows that Opera mini 5 on iPhone can load 4 more webpages than iPhone’s built-in Mobile Safari, with the help of server-side compression. And this makes Opera mini 5 look super awesome. I just can’t wait to have a try.
It was submitted to Apple about 4 hours ago (i.e., March 23, 12:25 UTC.) Let’s wait and see if Apple would let the competitor get into the App Store.

信義房屋做了一個 Augmented Reality 的 iPhone App，還蠻酷的；不過我一直都不太知道在 iPhone 上的 AR 是怎麼做的@@

可以看得出來，iPad render 出來的網頁比較接近 Desktop Safari。iPhone 不知道是不是為了增進可讀性，都會把某段文字硬是放大－比對背景的線條就很明顯了。
(感謝 @itszero 幫我做了一個 WebView 程式放進 iPad Simulator 跑！)
