  • 09:43 Argh! iPhoto/Image Capture insists I have 3 pictures on my phone which aren't there and won't sync whats actually on the phone. Sweary++ #

  • 12:51 frustratedtwitter - Is there any example out there of ABPeoplePickerNavigationController? #

  • 10:01 I suspect 80% of the SDK pain would go away with docs that updated when the SDK appeared and a delta document that explained changes. #
  • 10:06 @mattgemmell Yes, but it's "added" "removed" "changed" and thats it. #
  • 10:07 I'm fussy about docs. Call it a hang over from when I was full time writing them back at Micromuse. #
  • 10:08 Realises that while he was making toast the docs here did update to include the delta doc. I made a lot of toast I did. :) #
  • 13:10 Feels strong as he has just blocked chucknorris_ ... #
