So today I got a package. It was not the package I was hoping for but nonetheless it was a good one. Amazon is fast at delivery. I only ordered these books two days ago, and it was shipped yesterday from Mississauga. Anyways whenever I have free time now, I’ll try to start reading through these books. I’ll start with Programming in Objective-C 2.0 because its the foundation of cocoa! For some reason though I feel that Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X will be a fun read!

Objective-C and Cocoa here I come!
I’ve been wanting to learn how to program for OS X and the iPhone, so today I ordered two books from amazon. The first is Programming in Objective-C 2.0 (2nd Edition) (Developer’s Library) by Stephen Kochan which the language used by Cocoa.The second book is Cocoa(R) Programming for Mac(R) OS X (3rd Edition) by Aaron Hillegass. So hopefully in the next couple of months I will be learning how to program on OS X, and who knows maybe one day you will be using an app I created!
Get organized with Google Calendar
In the last couple of days I’ve been trying to improve my productivity. I’m productive, but there’s always room for improvement right? Well here’s a nifty thing I started doing. I use google calendar to input all my important dates for school and my personal life. On my blackberry I installed the google sync Application so whenever I make a change on google calendar, or on my phone it’s updated everywhere. This has actually helped me become more efficient. I also entered my cell number into google calendar and it sends me an sms reminder at a predetermined time before my appointment. All that is missing now is to sync it with my macbook pro once I get it. To do that I will use Spanning Sync which is known to be great when syncing google calendar and iCal.
