Transcript

[This show is sponsored by The Pragmatic Studio. The Pragmatic Studio has been teaching iOS development since November of 2008. They have a 4-day hands-on course where you'll learn all the tools, APIs, and techniques to build iOS Apps with confidence and understand how all the pieces work together. They have two courses coming up: the first one is in July, from the 22nd - 25th, in Western Virginia, and you can get early registration up through June 21st; you can also sign up for their August course, and that's August 26th - 29th in Denver, Colorado, and you can get early registration through July 26th. If you want a private course for teams of 5 developers or more, you can also sign up on their website at pragmaticstudio.com.]

CHUCK: Hey everybody and welcome to Episode 12 of iPhreaks! This week on our panel, we have Pete Hodgson.

PETE: Buongiorno from rainy San Francisco this morning!

CHUCK: Ben Scheirman.

BEN: I can give you a very jet lagged hello from Houston!

CHUCK: Rod Schimdt.

ROD: Hello from Salt Lake City!

CHUCK: I'm Charles Max Wood from DevChat.tv. This week, we have a special guest and that's Sam Soffes. Alright!

SAM: Hello!

CHUCK: Do you want to introduce yourself real quick?

SAM: Sure! I live in Kentucky right now. I work in a company called "Seesaw". I'm working on a bunch of little projects; Roon had been my main side project right now.

CHUCK: Awesome.

BEN: That's Roon, R-O-O-N.io, right?

SAM: You got it!

BEN: Yeah, I'm primed I've got the best username. All I need to do now is blog a little bit.

[Laughter]

BEN: So Roon is like a blogging platform. What makes it kind of compelling in comparison to some of the other things that are out there?

SAM: It's a product I did with Drew Wilson. If you're not familiar with his work, he's a spectacular designer. I always wanted it that makes it really simple that we wanted to use, and hopefully other people wanted to use, too, so he just made something really simple that's really beautiful, and there's also a native iPhone app. The iPad app is like the universal, it's almost done; I'm submitting it, hopefully, this week. And we have a Mac app in the Pipeline. It's just like we wanted to make a really good writing experience that's simple and pretty and hopefully people like it.

CHUCK: Awesome.

BEN: Yeah,
