exploring new shores 
soe is more a braindump than it is a weblog. Nevertheless at least it's noteworthy, that I started to get familiar with objective-c to build iPhone apps.
To understand and follow Apple's paradigms and approval processes I took the chance to 'port' my
shoppingList to the iPhone.
It is a simple app, so after requesting approval, it got
ready for the App Store within 3 days. I tried to give it a fancy name (german: Auf der Liste, english: It's on my list)
If you have an iPhone or iPod touch and don't mind having an actually simple and easy grocery list, give it a try. You can access it via its landing page at
