I have always wanted to build a mobile app. In fact when I got a palm pilot way back in 2000, I got into developing apps for it. But I never managed to get past a simple ‘hello world’ program.

Once I got BlogEasy developed and put on the AppStore I had an idea to develop the same for iOS. That got additional motivation when I went for Christmas vacation to Tuticorin. I didn’t take my laptop; I had carried only he iPad. I couldn’t blog because I didn’t have an app on iPad.

Once I came back I went full swing into this. I would listen daily to the application development lectures of a Stanford professor, and read books & articles. Then slowly I started developing the app.

In the mean time work took an ugly turn (that’s a big story and its for another time). That delayed the development quite considerably.

Long story short, I am typing this blog post from my own iOS app, BlogEasy. This is only a testing phase. So lot of rough edges still. But in a week, I should be able to get this production ready.
