Ninth Division [9D]

XCode by default uses a very crappy theme to read and write code. It reminds me of the theme for Terminal.app. I am surprised at how many people I see that use this worthless theme; it’s like writing a Document in 8 point Arial font all day long.

I have been programming with Cocoa and Objective-C for about three or four years now. Never did I consider myself beyond a novice. I just loved the idea of making applications for my beloved Macintosh. A few friends of mine (Dave and Eric) were really into making Mac apps too. Nothing ever materialized, but I learned a lot and had great fun building Mac apps.

Fast forward to last March of 2008. I like so many others, anxiously awaited the release of the public iPhone SDK. I was excited to see what it was all about and proceded to download the SDK and XCode. Once I bought my first iPhone in July interested hit a all time high… I had to know more.

Hey there – I am Andy Peters! Starting Ninth Division has been something I have been wanting to do for years. I am super excited about it and thought it was time to introduce myself to you all following the site and those who have just come across it now.

Sojern’s Flight Sites was the first iPhone application for Ninth Division to be published on the iTunes App Store. After a little over a week of being on the store it stayed in the Top 20 Free Travel applications. Yesterday (Sunday Jan 18, 2009) it hit #13…

Ninth Division is ready and open for business…
