Quite Useful Weekly Roundup

I started the Beautiful Algorithms tutorial series this week.  The first algorithm is fire, a cool graphical effect that’s actually easy to understand and create: Part 1, Part 2.  I also wrote about Git GUIs because I’ll be referring to Git more often in my programming tutorials.  Ric contributed a post about knowledge management and Swirrl.

Twitter Stuff

Avoiding iPhone App Rejection is quite an eye-opener for me.  It’s interesting that he notes compliance with Apple’s UI guidelines, when so many apps have hackish or terrible UIs.

The Hidden Costs of Apple’s Push Notification Service was another good iPhone developer article I’ll probably keep coming back to.

More developer articles of note: GitHub Issue Tracker, GitHub API, GitHub Pages.

I enjoyed these productivity related links Simon found: How We Work and Daily Routines.
