| Apple releases iOS 6 golden master to developers |
| By Thom Holwerda on 2012-09-12 21:00:41 |
| "Apple has just released the final Golden Master build of iOS 6 to developers. Although a public version won't be available for existing users until September 19th, developers can use the final version to test against iOS apps in preparation for the new iPhone 5." Developers, get cracking. You don't want your applications to show black bars on the iPhone 5, right? |

| Fragmentation? |

"You don't want your applications to show black bars on the iPhone 5" Oh the problems of 'fragmentation' probably only exist when it is another platform. |

| Inteegrating Facebook API in iOS6 |

"Developers will be able to use iOS 6 to add Facebook functionality into existing apps using a newly introduced API." Integrating all my apps with facebook is just what I wanted (not really). You know all the apps are going to have facebook integration now just because they want to be on the bandwagon. |

You know all the apps are going to have facebook integration now just because they want to be on the bandwagon. Does this mean I have a whole new wave of feed-spamming to look forward to? Every time I think I couldn't hate Facebook more, someone somewhere finds me a whole new reason. |

| Seriously. It's bad enough every single website seems to be infested with that shit, now all the apps too? I wish we could excise that cancer called Facebook, but it seems to be the new reality tv for this generation. |

> "You don't want your applications to show black bars on the iPhone 5" Oh the problems of 'fragmentation' probably only exist when it is another platform. You know, that's exactly what I thought when I read about the letter boxing of apps on the iPhone 5. What does this mean for older devices? Will developers have to make separate UIs and if so, how long will we expect them to maintain the old ones? How different will the two UIs be? It's certainly starting to look quite fragmented to me. P.s. I'm an iPhone user myself. Just so you know that even some Apple users are growing a bit concerned. |

| Well as facebook was for me a recipient replacement for all the "spam"/"hey look at this mail". I have no reason to hate it more or less. |

| Yep, surely Apple fanboys will come up with an explanation that it is not really fragmentation, rather "customization" or something similar. |
