Mrs. Flinger: Code * Travel * Write * Discover

Sep, 13, 2009

Learn to programm iApps from Stanford thanks to iTunesU. Free.

I purchased a book about a year ago for programming iPhone Apps. That book? The spine still isn’t broken; which is a sure sign that I’m either a) complete slacker or b) too anal to break the spines on my books.

Clearly it’s not B.

I tend to learn better through interaction so when I found out I could participate in a class at STANFORD for FREE?

I felt a little giddy.

So I’ll be participating in the Stanford iTunes U iApp Building. There is a series of podcast downloads with associated PDF slides of the lectures.

I’ll be downloading these files as quickly as possible before word gets out that I can get smart FOR FREE from STANFORD.

Maybe someone was completely baked when they thought this was a great idea, because it was. It is. And it feels a touch illegal, wrong, and a little dirty. Me getting smart off Stanford’s lectures.

Raur, baby. Just… Raur. Bring on teh sexy code!

Posted by Karen Sugarpants on 2009-09-19 20:30:53 That does sound cool! Hope you get something good out of the class! Make sure when you create your world-famous app it works with the iTouch because I don't have an iPhone...
