Case of beer and free chat for life for anyone who can make that happen.

/also, what would be the "there's an app for that" slogan?

but Yuku's RSS feed sucks. That's really the only way to display the posts in an app.

The best way to do it is to just screen scrape it from the HTML. It's easy enough in one of the JVM languages or C#, but Objective C makes my head hurt. I hate working in that language.<div>
</div><div>My biggest complaint about the site on the iPhone is that all the 3rd party stuff included in the site causes it to hang and run really slow. It drives me crazy. Second is that the mobile view doesn't have an option to expand a topic. I would like to click on a expand button and get the replies to a topic without having to go into the thread.</div><div>

It's just hamstrung by a language that makes my brain explode. The consistency of the Coca interface is great. The interface builder tool is awesome. It's a game changer really. It's amazing to me that NeXTSTEP didn't make it. It just goes to show that it takes more than superior technology to make it in the marketplace. Now, it also amazes me that it is still tied to Objective C and that there isn't a move to Objective C "NeXT" or something more modern. Did I mention how much I dislike Objective C?
