Junior High App Developer

I was browsing through yahoo news when I saw this pop up. Apparently a junior high student has been developing apps for the Iphone and the Ipad. As of now, he has started a club for his school that is dedicated to working with applications for mobile devices. Now this is really amazing that a 6th grader is working on such advance software that he has already developed two apps and is working with a third-party company.

Enable iOS 5 Hidden Autocorrection Keyboard

Sonny Dickson uncovered a way to enable a hidden auto correction bar for your keyboard similar to many Android phones. It's super easy if you are jailbroken and have iFile, but it can also be done fairly simply with iBackupBot. As you can see in the video, it's pretty nice, but it changes the way the spacebar works somewhat which might make your typing slower. This is an iOS 5 hidden feature and will work with iPhones, iPads and iPods. The video shows how it works and how to turn this on with iFile. If you aren't jailbroken download iBackupBot here. Backup your iPhone, iPad or iPod in iTunes. Open iBackupBot and load the backup you just made. Navigate to var/mobile/Library/Preferences/com.apple.keyboard.plist and open the file (just hit cancel and it will open). Add these two HTML tags right above the </dict> tag.

<key>KeyboardAutocorrectionLists</key><string>YES</string>

Save and use iBackupBot to restore from backup. Anyone thinking they might use this?

Siri for the iPhone 4S Demo & Review

This is a video demonstration of the Siri app that comes stock on the iPhone 4S. Siri is a personal assistant that's geared towards helping the users experience with your iPhone a more productive one. In this video, I demonstrate a few of the key features that are currently available for Siri. The "Reminders" app, which was recently introduced with the release of iOS5, has seamless integration with Siri. The ability to use Reminders with Siri creates a simpler means of scheduling and reminding the user to perform certain tasks throughout the day.

Siri also provides the ability to send a text message (via voice) to a person, which would come in handy if texting while driving. The intellect of Siri allows it to realize your location and serve up answers to your questions such as "What gift should I get my mother for her birthday?" (As I ask in the video). The Siri application will find your current location and bring up a list of gift shops. But what would artificial intelligence be without a hint of sarcasm? ..I've asked Siri a series of quI hope you enjoy this video, thanks for watching.
