Thanks so much for coming to our Dec meetup. We had a wonderful evening!

Special thank to Greg for the User Experience Lesson! Hey, Greg! We all feel your pain!! :P

This is truly an informative and enjoyable discussion about user interface development.  We surely don’t have much chance for this kind of in-depth discussion - from a “lasting” pain to an implemented solution.

Moosh is available here.  If anyone of you are interested in testing out some exclusive functions, please leave Greg a message in Anobii. You can email me alternative.  I’ll get you two aligned.

Last but not least, thanks Beansbox for sponsoring the snack and drinks!  Thanks Ultimate Mac for the venue!

Our next meetup is scheduled on some February Thursday. Please subscribe our RSS or join our facebook.  Details will be posted later.

Wish you guys happy holidays and happy new year!!

This is the first CocoaHeads gathering without iPhone NDA!! Let’s interject by doing an iPhone related topic.

Topic: Web service integration with iPhone

Web 2.0 service related iPhone apps constitute a large proportion of the popular iPhone app category - facebook, twitterrific, linked in…

In the gathering, we will discuss how to a few essential components in iPhone OS which allow us to talk to common Web service API.  We will try to evaluate a few approaches with code example. The talk will be short.  We will have lots of time to discuss the topics, your experience and other random stuff. :)

We are moving to a new venue - Alumni Lounge.  A big thank to the HKU Alumni Association for the venue support. It’s right on top of Cosmos Cafe near LKF. Drinks and wonderful snacks (u’ve gotta try the shrimp toast!!) will be available at a good price too. So, please come, buy a drink and chill :)
