I finally entered an Iron Coder! The theme this year was “Conspiracy” and the API was “iPhone”. Which is a little funny considering there is no real API for the iPhone.
Basically what I did was write a little cocoa app that lives up in your menu bar and takes a shot with the iSight ever 5 minutes.
The reasoning being that if you are the victim of conspiracy the best way to uncover it all is to set up this “nanny cam” type thing. Basically the built in web server serves up an iPhone specific web page with all the images on it. Check it out:
Just run it, make sure your isight’s plugged in, and then go to http://localhost:9138/ and test it out.
If you want to check out how I wrote it (it isn’t anything super special), the source is here.
I unfortunately didn’t win (my presentation lacked flash and generally sucked), but I did get 4 votes and I didn’t even vote for myself…
By the way, C4[1] was amazing. I will blog about it shortly.
