| MonoTouch Article - TwitEstaçion - MonoTouch TweetStation en español - Localising an App
If you are a MonoTouch developer then you should already be familiar with the two subjects of this post:
Miguel's awesome TweetStation open-source/MonoTouch Twitter client (also on iTunes); and the recent release of the Professional iPhone Development with MonoTouch/c# book from WroxIt just so happens that Chapter 12 - Localizing for an International Audience of the book introduces a small utility called ngenstrings that helps you to translate your application into other languages. This article gives an ...

You can read more about this in the source links for this sample.

| MonoTouch Sample - MonoTouch port of TDBadgedCell
I recently wanted to add an 'item count' to a UITableView in one of my iPhone/iPad projects and thought it would be nice to match the grey/encircled 'badge' used in the Mail application.
Happily, I found (via The Unofficial Apple Weblog) that Tim Davies had the same idea and already done the hard work, albeit in Objective-C. Tim's code for TDBadgedCell is on github as is the MonoTouch/C# port: TDBadgedCellSharp. Both produce the same output.

Craig Dunn (@conceptdev) has been a bit quiet on the blogging front but explains why in this entry. He's been working on a book as well as the MIX10 app which is now live on the app store.
People have been asking for the source for this app and even though the MIX10 source isn't available Craig points us to two earlier versions of the conference app where sourcecode is available (on github) and links to some of the source Miguel worked on for the MIX10 app.
He also provides screen shots and class diagr...
