Real-Time Office Reporting via iPhone
One of the really cool features of the iPhone that not many people talk about is its ability to call any web-based service to retrieve information in real-time. The Apple Development Toolkit allows developers to get data from sources such as an RSS feed to more complex systems like web services or even scraping data off of a web page. You can even pull data from multiple sources at the same time and then combine this information into some really interesting customized views.
Importance of a Content Management System (CMS)
When we talk with customers about either upgrading an existing website or building a completely new site, we cannot recommend enough that part of the project work be devoted to setting up a content management system (CMS). Content management system's allow the user to login to a secure web portal via any browser and change live content on the website without having to get a developer involved in the process.
