NE Events is a new online calendar for tech and creative events happening in the North East.
I was lucky enough to be given the chance to build the site but the brains behind the whole thing is Kieron Donaghue, the man who brought you sharemyplaylists.
JHSpotifyEngine is an objective-c wrapper around the Spotify search API. This allows you to get Spotify URIs (amongst other things) for artists, albums and tracks.
More details on the API can be found here.
All the returned information is parsed into standard Cocoa objects and as it currently just uses NSXMLParser it can be used in iPhone/iPad apps as well as desktop Cocoa.
The code is available here.
The clever folks over at Postmarkapp made a request for a Java postmark API wrapper a while back and as I already had something similar I decided to help out.
The code is here
The API info is here
It allows you to send mail via your Postmark account and wraps up the JSON responses as pojos. All the dependencies are included in the project and it should be easy to integrate into any existing code.
The Bounce API is coming soon too.
I can finally announce that Social Tunes, my first public iOS app, is available in the appstore.
The app is a music metadata aggregator so you can gather up info on the music you listen too and share it on any social network.
Go get it here.
I had help and support from a lot of people but Ewan McIntosh at NFM deserves the biggest mention for the patience he showed through the project. Also thanks to Lee Etherington at Tusk, who provided all the music you see in the screenshots.
