API is an industry standard term, most things make themselves available for interaction via APIs (for instance, programs interact with Windows via the Windows API)
Last app totally rocks!
Kaneshna kruta, no mne nah ne sdalasj niodna ficha!
Does anyone know the exact name of the last application mentioned in this video??
Thanks!!
Both are completely different things, IPA is Apple’s filetype for iPhone applications (I-Phone-Application), while API is an acronym for Application Programming Interface.
hmmmm tricorder anyone ?
I just ordered mine… also have an iphone… I wonder how this will stack up against that… if my iphone will be used just as an ipod instead
well i see this as nothing new. “apps w/o borders” is the core philosophy of open source. open libraries with freedom to be used by anyone, ergo not having to reinvent the wheel. just look at the number of bash scripts that use zenity, there’s no need for gtk+ code when it is already done.
200 YARDS THAT WAY
umm has anyone noticed the ipod touche and iphone use IPA and the G1 android uses API i mean API is IPA backwards
