My first iPad eBook App, Micrographia, is now available in Apple’s iTunes App Store.
Use this direct link to download the App to your PC: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/micrographia/id367694834?mt=8.
In addition to containing the complete text of Robert Hooke’s landmark introduction to microscopy, Micrographia also features five plates from the book that can be copied to your device’s Photo Album and subsequently used as wallpaper on your iPad.
Micrographia is a free App.
The August 18, 2009 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine includes an article in its History of Medicine section that attributes the death of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to:
” … a streptococcal infection leading to an acute nephritic syndrome caused by poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis …”
My latest App, GetZoned, has been rejected by the Apple iTunes App Store for displaying pricing information. The actual rejection notice said:
“Thank you for submitting GetZoned to the App Store. We’ve reviewed GetZoned and determined that we cannot post this version of your iPhone application to the App Store because your application contains pricing information in the application and/or marketing text (Application Description / Release Notes). Providing specific pricing information in these locations may lead to user confusion because of pricing differences in countries. It would be appropriate to remove pricing information from these locations.”
The recommended corrections have been made and the App resubmitted for approval.

My latest App, iToldU, is now on sale in the Apple iTunes App Store. Priced at ninety-nine cents, iToldU, can turn the most mild-mannered, meek mother into a powerhouse parent. Likewise, feeble father figures can be transformed into dominating dads with iToldU.
Get some peace of mind, while dishing out a piece of your mind. You’ll be glad; iToldU.
My popular book App, YO!, is now available as Version 1.1. This newly revised version was released in response to several reader’s reporting a problem with saving the edited order of the App’s Tab Bar buttons. This issue has been resolved and Version 1.1 will be provided as a FREE update to all current owners of YO!.
Yup, iToldU was just rejected by the iTunes App Store. To quote from the rejection letter:
“We’ve reviewed iToldU 1.00 and determined that we cannot post this version of your iPhone application to the App Store because your application contains pricing information.”
Inside iToldU I had an advertisement that included a single price (e.g., $.99) in its content.
I have since removed the offending price and resubmitted the App.
Now you’ll have to wait another week or so for approval, again. Believe me, it’ll be worth the wait!
Based on numerous comments by readers of YO!, the Tab Bar button sequence saving routine has been removed. This update (i.e., Version 1.1) will be provided free of charge to all current users of YO!.
“How many times do I have to tell you …” Sound familiar? You bet it is; and sometimes it’s all you ever say … all day … every day! If that sounds like a day in your life, then prepare to arm yourself with iToldU.
iToldU is a soon-to-be-released App that contains over 100 parent-like admonitions, screamed spoken in a tone that your little monsters children will appreciate.
Hang in there, help is on the way. iToldU is coming soon!
