We're moving! Bye bye Posterous

As you may already know, Twitter acquired Posterous last week. The way I (and many others) understand their public press release is pretty clear: we should expect Posterous to close in the near future. Many Posterous users are already moving from it to other places. So I decided to stop publishing on Posterous. I must move to something else.

As of today, you should update your bookmarks and your RSS subscriptions according to the following new addresses where I will continue to publish abour iOS designs that I really like.

First, you can look at all my past screen shots directly on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/buildingiphoneapps/sets/

I will now use Flickr to post screen shots of iOS apps that I really like.

Also, you can follow posts on Tumblr: http://iosappdesigns.tumblr.com/

I will now use Tumblr to publish different things related to great iOS app designs. So bookmark this URL too.

This change is now in effect. Thanks for following me! Please, share.

I love Readability simplicity. Here is why.

Somehow, a reading application has to be easy to use and well designed to make the reading experience a joy. Readability for iPhone or iPad is exactly that: a well designed app that is a joy to use.

Look at this little gem. Really nice app. Cool concept. Could become Instagram for videos.

I like Foodspotting. Here is why.

I like the guided view that is overlaid when tapping for the first time a section. I like the way dishes are presented as cards that you scroll left and right. The light themed create account view is very clean too.

Not just for iOS apps designs that I like anymore

I decided to extend the goal of this blog. I want to share with you the things that I like and find to be great design examples. These examples should provide you with inspiration for your own iOS UI design. I hope you enjoy my findings.
