iOS and Facebook updates

Release has been delayed due to updates on the platforms. Got to make sure all is right before opening Pandora's box in Facebook. Lots of changes on Facebook APIs as well as Apples iOS.

I am making changes in the the way quotes are stored avoiding core data all together and turning to C instead of Objective-C when possible. This at least gets a bit closer to Java to it will be easier to port it to Android. And since the data is on a plist, the database will be able to be updates without the need to update the App.

The comming one is going to be a great release, thanks for the patience and the great reviews.

Cheers.

Facebook Wisdom Quotes V1.0

The first version of Wisdom Quotes on Facebook is being tested to release soon. This will allow Facebook users to display quotes on a Facebook application and post them to their status updates.
Stay tune for both releases, the new iPhone app and the Facebook app will be released together.

Towards 1.1.2

Finally Facebook integration is done. Nothing out of this planet, I just haven't had time. We are testing the new feature. Adding some feedback to the interface, mainly for the no authorization callbacks and posting confirmation.

I noticed in the feedback that people don't know about the lotus menu. So I'm adding an info button with quick instructions cheat sheet. This last can be disabled in the preferences or in the same HUD panel.

Although we are almost ready to release, Wisdom Quotes 1.1.2 won't be released until the Facebook app is ready in it's minimal functionality and aesthetics.

Aiming at 1.1.2

The work to version 1.1.2 started.
The first feature worth mentioning is Facebook integration.

Lets see what you think about this iteration of Wisdom Quotes. I believe we addressed much of our user's requests on this one, but the most important one will come very soon and it is Facebook Integration.

Favorites

Implemented favorites functionality today. I should have written it in C but I didn't want to deal with C strings. Yes lazy, I did have to put up with NSCoding and archiving, so It didn't make much sense to play the lazy one.

Anyway, it is working and it's great, you can now save your favorite quotes!
