SSH Tutorial

Here’s an easy to follow SSH Tutorial for Windows, from the site of Rochester Institute of Technology. Admittedly this site has probably gotten a little thin of late relative to posts that offer tips and tutorials on server infrastructure, but if this topic interests you, Digital Media Minute has done quite a few other posts in this area, on a free SSH server for Windows, Configuring OpenSSH for public key authentication, as well as a lengthy, comprehensive article from four years ago on setting up an sftp server on windows. If you could suggest resources that have helped you with SSH, please let me know in the feedback area below.

What’s New In IPhone SDK For IPhone OS 3.0

Inside-Secrets-to-an-iPhone-App

There are more than 1,000 new APIs in the iPhone SDK for iPhone OS 3.0, many of which enable iPhone/iPod touch to work with hardware accessories that we’ll be seeing more of in the future.
Improvements in the iPhone SDK for iPhone OS 3.0 include:

In-App Purchase, which will enable you to sell content and services from within your app. Handles transactions with iTunes

Push Notification service means you can give your customers new info, notifications, or alerts even when the app isn’t running.

Accessories— Applications can now communicate with your accessories through either a dock connector or Bluetooth. An app can retrieve data from accessories or you can control accessories from the interface.

Peer to Peer Connectivity now applications, (not only games) can communicate via Bluetooth between devices. Game Kit supports voice communication from within apps.

The Map Kit framework lets you embed maps within your applications. Uses Google’s Mobile Maps with current location and geocoding, etc.

iPod Library Access lets you access a user’s audio library (music, audio books, podcasts) from your app with a new Media Player framework.

Exciting stuff. Digital Media Minute will be doing a post speculating on the implications of the new SDK and iPhone 3G S for developers looking to build iPhone apps.
