Why not learn objective-c and all the iPhone stuff away from just the web ?

Just my two cents on that :)

jQTouch is a very interesting project in this regard.

Mobile devices are very much in trend and working on them will provide a new insight on development considering the constraints that mobile devices face.</p> Perhaps get involved in some of mobile application development.

I do agree about learning some about C, it surely gives you a better understanding of what happens under the hood.

And I totally agree about doing something else than web dev. Working with different limits and constraints is a sure way to challenge yourself and work outisde your comfort zone, which is good to learn some new lessons and gain some extra confidence.

  1. Be careful with the buzz: Of course, everything should be taken with a grain of salt. Test new technologies thoroughly and only employ them if they solve a problem that cannot (easily) be solved with existing, well-tested technologies.

  2. Oh yes, learning what’s going on near the machine’s heart is very important. A scripting language isn’t a replacement for low-level knowlegde, the two aren’t exchangeable.

  3. Again a very good point. I find myself longing for good old platform-coding and algorithms. Lately I dipped my toe in Cocoa an iPhone coding. Earlier some java EE stuff. It was refreshing after php/rails crunching.

  4. Absolutely a must! Also there’s so much information that one can’t possibly hold everyting in head, be sure to know how to look up stuff and find information with ease.

  5. That’s exactly why I tend to have a strange bad feeling in my guts when someone’s approaching me with a great new open source alternative. Only a tiny fragment of OSS is maintained well unfortunately.
