I’m going to be at MobileCamp Boston this weekend, and I’ve prepared a talk on developing for the iPhone. It’s called “iPhone Development for Earthlings.”

What’s with the title? The iPhone SDK announcement has attracted a lot of developers (and even designers) who are pretty new to all the technologies involved. Things Mac nerds like me have lived with for a while. To them, it’s kind of an “alien world” — all these seemingly bizarre conventions and ideas that started way back in the NeXTStep days.

It’s a friendly (and hopefully entertaining) introduction that sets things straight. It drills down into some of the trickier aspects of Obj-C and the frameworks that newcomers are likely to stumble over. It also covers some of the design/UI issues involved. You can see a tentative outline here.

Speaking of iPhone developments…watch this space in a couple weeks.
