FarmVille Launching Soon for iPhone, iPad and Android
Currently, FarmVille has more than 80 million users, and it has achieved that primarily by becoming staple on Facebook. There are news that FarmVille will be available on your mobile phone, apart from playing on browsers. It will also support devices like iPhone, iPad and Android very soon.
The company has planned to offer mobile versions of the game that will support iPhone 3g applications and 4Gs as well, but missing “additional details” including the platforms and the time frames. It’s also possible that some or all mobile versions could have only limited functionality compared to the Facebook and desktop web browser editions.
There are chances that FarmVille might be rated as top iPhone applications, once launched for iPhone. These news get importance when when Tumblr blog Supererogatory discovered that the domain names farmvilleandroid.com, farmvilleipad.com, farmvilleiphone.com and farmvillesms.com were registered with DNStination Inc. The official website for Zynga’s very successful and popular online game and also working on some of the interesting applications for iPhone.
Spokesperson for Zynga, said, “Zynga plans to expand to various mobile platforms. We cannot provide additional information at this time”.

The Apple-Adobe War Continues: Flash Banned for iPhone Apps Development
Apple recently announced its iPhone Developer Program License Agreement to ban the use of Flash-to-iPhone converter. Since, 2010 Steve Jobs and Apple has already announced that they don’t like Adobe. We can see how much Apple dislike Adobe by their decision of leaving Flash off iPad and promoting HTML 5 for iPhone 3G applications and 4Gs as well.
Adobe had a tool to remain as a part of iPhone development even though they have not been allowed by Apple. The Adobe Creative Suite 5 Flash-to-iPhone converter, that allowed developers to create apps in Flash and then port them into iPhone.
A new change to the iPhone Developer Program License Agreement, which comes as part of the release of the new iPhone OS SDK for developers, changes all that. Originally section 3.3.1 was only a sentence long, but now it has gained several more.
The new policy states;
“3.3.1 — Applications may only use Documented APIs in the manner prescribed by Apple and must not use or call any private APIs. Applications must be originally written in Objective-C, C, C++, or JavaScript as executed by the iPhone OS WebKit engine, and only code written in C, C++, and Objective-C may compile and directly link against the Documented APIs (e.g., Applications that link to Documented APIs through an intermediary translation or compatibility layer or tool are prohibited).”
Daring Fireball’s John Gruber points says that the new language restrictions simply implies that cross-compilers are banned — you have to build applications for iPhone within Apple’s pre-approved programming languages or watch your app be denied access to Apple’s app stores.
The above discussion shows that this was a direct attack on Adobe, whose CS5 suite prominently advertises the Flash-to-iPhone compiler as a feature. Neutralizing it Apple blowed another assault on Flash. This all concludes that it’s a major setback for developers who are developing top iPhone applications with Flash as a backbone.

Opera Mini Coming to the iPhone
Surprisingly, Apple has approved the Opera Mini mobile web browser for the iPhone and iPod touch. It was announced by Opera yesterday. The app will be available in the app store in coming 24 hours. Since the app has been approved by App store, let us see whether this app will hit the top iPhone applications in utility category or not.
There had been a dispute between Opera and Apple in the past. The mini mobile browser of Opera has been reported the subject of dispute. People believed that this Opera app for mobile browser would be rejected by Apple because it directly competed with Apple built app — Safari. Keeping this point in view, Opera built and submitted the application anyway. Opera turned this into media event by creating a counter and showing that how much time had passed since the company submitted the Opera mini to App store. The question is still there, whether this new app will support iPhone 3G applications or it has been specifically designed for iPhone 4Gs?
We did not expect the app to be approved by Apple, based on its rejection of other apps in the past that shared functionality with the iPhone’s built-in apps. However, Opera informed that they did this one “by the book” and did everything possible to be compliant with Apple’s app store policies. We don’t know what deliberations occurred within Apple’s app store team after Opera submitted Opera Mini for review, but we’d sure like to know. It is hoped that Opera’s mini browser app will revolutionized the race for browsers of iPhone applications.
We look forward to trying out Opera Mini and will be sure to give you our review of the mobile browser soon. What do you think about this? Express your views through comments.

iPhone Applications Influencing Daily Life
Developing iPhone applications is not an easy task. Especially in first world countries, there are many issues for companies associated with iphone applications development. The local laws are very strict, along with a huge burden of taxes on income. Labour is damn expensive and real estate properties are very high. Besides many reasons, the above mentioned reasons force the software development countries for outsourcing their work to third world countries.
Almost every company dreams about their iphone app to be listed among the top iphone applications in the App Store. Few companies have succeeded and many are still in the race. Speaking generally, iPhone application has become a passion and companies are switching towards iPhone applications and iPhone 3gs applications very randomly. In fact, iphone apps development has emerged as a very profitable business worldwide.
According to current stats, iphone sales are increasing day by day and this increase in sales is also increasing the hits at app store. Top iPhone applications, either they are paid or free are getting hundreds and thousands of downloads per day. Though there are many apps that are beneficial for all age groups from children games to business apps. These apps have influenced the life of every human being.

Rally Up – A Location Based Network For People Who Like Privacy
Rally Up, a new geolocation app for iPhone was released today. This app has strong focus on privacy and sharing content that makes it different from Foursquare and Gowalla. Rally Up bills itself as “a social network for real friends” and its focus is on letting people share messages and photos with the people they trust.
As for as other social applications are concerned, Rally Up takes a very different approach to friends lists and friends management. For instance, Rally Up doesn’t integrate with Twitter. As the saying goes, “it’s not a flaw, it’s a feature.”
The mission of Rally Up isn’t to create or tap into yet another social network rather it is to be able to be selective about who you share information with.
For instance, when you add a user as a friend, you have different options that control how information is shared with them and how information is received by them. This “slider” can be changed at will.
Here are your options:
• Real friends – These are people that you want to know about, meaning you will see their activity in your feed and get push notifications of what they are doing. So your boyfriend or girlfriend or your sister are the types of people you might put in this category.
• Feed friends – You’ll get updates from these individuals in your feed, but you won’t get push notifications. So your co-workers or your gym buddies might go here. You like to know what they are up to, but you don’t need to be alerted at all times.
• Lurk – This is a pretty cool option, it lets you see what your friend is doing but they won’t see your check-ins. Likewise, you won’t get any push notifications about them. So when you’re shopping for a birthday present for someone, you might want to put them in the Lurk category.
• Mute – OK, so you know that girl from high school that you kind of sort of remember but can’t really place who keeps friending you on Facebook and LinkedIn and Foursquare? You don’t want to be rude and might feel obligated to accept her as a friend, but you really don’t care about what she’s doing, nor do you want her to know what party you are going to. So mute her. She won’t see your updates and you won’t see hers. If you feel like unmuting later, you can always do so.
When it comes to check-ins, Rally Up has a lot more granularity in that regard too. You can designate locations as being private. That means that someone can see that you checked in at home, but “home” is never defined by a GPS location. Likewise, if you don’t want people to know details about where you work, you can designate your workplace as being private.
For parties and conferences you can create temporary locations, without having to add those locations permanently to the database. At conferences especially, people can always see tons of locations created for a specific event, only for those locations to be discarded after the event is over. Temporary locations make sense because you can check-in, but not clutter up the map for everyone else.
Rally Up also lets you use check-ins to let people know that you are headed to an event. So if you’re en route to a place, you can check-in and your friends can know you are going and then choose to meet you there.
Rally Up also lets you send personal messages and it integrates push notifications to give an SMS effect, but without charging for messages. That’s pretty cool.
Rally Up is free and is available for the iPhone now. As you can see from the above sceenshot, it’s also coming soon to the iPad.
If you want to take advantage of location-based social networks but want more control over who sees what, you might want to give Rally Up a shot.
