A Library in a Box - David Fiander iOS iOS (previously iPhone OS) is a mobile operating system developed by Apple Inc. and distributed exclusively for Apple hardware. The user interface of iOS is based on the concept of direct manipulation, using multi-touch gestures. Interface control elements consist of sliders, switches, and buttons. Interaction with the OS includes gestures such as swipe, tap, pinch, and reverse pinch, all of which have specific definitions within the context of the iOS operating system and its multi-touch interface. Internal accelerometers are used by some applications to respond to shaking the device (one common result is the undo command) or rotating it in three dimensions (one common result is switching from portrait to landscape mode). Major versions of iOS are released annually. History[edit] Apple had released the iPod Touch, which had most of the non-phone capabilities of the iPhone. In June 2010, Apple rebranded iPhone OS as "iOS". Software updates[edit] Features[edit] Home Screen[edit] Folders[edit]

BiblioBox.net S.C.R.I.B.E. -- Home Page 25 years of HyperCard—the missing link to the Web Sometime around 1988, my landlady and I cut a deal. She would purchase a Macintosh computer, I would buy an external hard drive, and we would leave the system in the living room to share. She used the device most, since I did my computing on an IBM 286 and just wanted to keep up with Apple developments. I opened the app and read the instructions. Not only that, but HyperCard included a scripting language called "Hyper Talk" that a non-programmer like myself could easily learn. Intrigued, I began composing stacks. This month, I glanced at my historical watch. "What was this thing?" And so the Cupertino company exiled the program to its Claris subsidiary, where it got lost amidst more prominent projects like Filemaker and the ClarisWorks office suite. Even before its cancellation, HyperCard's inventor saw the end coming. "I missed the mark with HyperCard," Atkinson lamented. "HyperCard is based upon hypertext," Gary Kildall told Stewart Cheifet.

Apple iWatch release date, news and rumours What time is it? If you check your smartwatch, you may find that it's a text message past a Twitter notification but if you check the zeitgeist, you'll find that it's wearable tech time. After more than a year of relegation to "next big thing" status, the smartwatch is finally breaking out into the mainstream with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Gear and Sony Smartwatch 2 following where Kickstarter phenomenon Pebble led. But we're yet to see a watch with true wow-factor and, for that, many are looking to Apple. Rumors of an Apple smartwatch have abounded since Pebble first hit the big time. Cut to the chaseWhat is it? We've rounded up all the rumors and speculation to keep things ticking (geddit!) Does the iWatch even exist? That's the million dollar question, and one that only the Apple insiders really know the answer to for now. Now for the longer answer: But a trademark does not a definite product launch make. The Nike connection Design guru Jony Ive, in particular, is a fan.

Heizer Software iPhone Line of smartphones designed and marketed by Apple Inc. History and availability Development of what was to become the iPhone began in 2004, when Apple started to gather a team of 1,000 employees led by hardware engineer Tony Fadell, software engineer Scott Forstall and design engineer Sir Jonathan Ive[3] to work on the highly confidential "Project Purple".[4][5] Apple CEO Steve Jobs steered the original focus away from a tablet (which Apple eventually revisited in the form of the iPad) towards a phone.[6] Apple created the device during a secretive collaboration with Cingular Wireless (which became AT&T Mobility) at the time—at an estimated development cost of US$150 million over thirty months.[7] According to Steve Jobs, the "i" word in "iMac" (and therefore "iPod", "iPhone" and "iPad") stands for internet, individual, instruct, inform, and inspire.[8][9] Worldwide iPhone availability: iPhone available since its original release iPhone available since the release of iPhone 3G Coming soon

Artisanal mining An artisanal miner or small-scale miner is, in effect, a subsistence miner. They are not officially employed by a mining company, but rather work independently, mining or panning for gold using their own resources. Small-scale mining includes enterprises or individuals that employ workers for mining, but generally working with hand tools. Artisanal miners often undertake the activity of mining seasonally – for example crops are planted in the rainy season, and mining is pursued in the dry season. However, they also frequently travel to mining areas and work year round. An estimated 13 - 20 million men, women, and children from over 50 developing countries are directly engaged in the artisanal mining sector[1] Issues in Artisanal Mining[edit] Artisanal mining can include activities as simple as panning for gold in rivers, to as complex as development of underground workings and small-scale processing plants.

Inspiration Apple TV Apple TV (marketed as TV) is a digital media player and a microconsole developed and sold by Apple Inc. It is a small network appliance and entertainment device that can receive digital data from a number of sources and stream it to capable TV for playing on the TV screen. The most recent version of Apple TV is the third generation, introduced on March 7, 2012, incorporating the higher resolution (1080p) video standard. History[edit] Original design[edit] Apple TV started shipping on March 21, 2007 with a 40 GB hard disk.[3][4] Apple released a 160 GB model on May 31, 2007; and ceased selling the 40 GB version from September 14, 2009.[5] On January 15, 2008, a major (and free) software upgrade was announced, that turned the Apple TV into a stand-alone device that no longer required a computer running iTunes on Mac OS X or Windows to stream or sync content to it, and making most of the Apple TV's hard disk redundant.
