What happened to MNO?
Dear Readers,
What Happened
Why this blog hasn’t been updated in almost a year.
As it’s primary contributor, Nick Pulido, has recently launched an iPhone App company called Tappix, and subsequently launched it’s first App, iAura. iAura has sold hundreds of copies so far, and has only been in the App Store since June.
As many of you know starting a company takes much of your time, and effort, leaving the projects before it too often neglected.
We’re Back
Moving forward we will posting the same mac related content that you could find here before, but we will also be adding a weekly iPhone App review, as well as various other iPhone related news. I know some people in the Mac community think that the news is already too saturated with iPhone stories. We promise not to bombard you with every app related story, or iPhone rumor. Rather we will aspire to be a quality source for interesting Apple, Mac and iPhone related content. We hope you enjoy the new content we will be bringing you, and welcome any and all feedback.

OpenClip is a developer framework to allow copy/paste support for any iPhone app, provided the developer builds this functionality into their App, which OpenClip hopes will be the case. OpenClip would allow developers to implement copy and paste in unique ways given the data type. Apple would be smart to emulate this approach as the ideal solution for copy/paste support on it’s touch devices.
