appspydr.com - xcode/iPhone programming resource search engine

Hacker News

http://www.appspydr.com There are tons of tutorials out there for xcode. Starting out as a self taught iOS developer can be a scary place. A place I'd been in a year ago. A big problem is that we don't have a solid way to go through all the vast libraries of resources. Google, in all its greatness, has its faults as it crawls the entire internet for relevant content, and isn't always the best at displaying them. Appspydr is a search engine that indexes handpicked sites and sources that contain quality tutorials and resources. Users can also request sites/sources to be indexed into Appspydr. I hacked it together fairly quickly (over the weekend) to demonstrate it's purpose and to gauge interests. Everything from suggestions, pledge of interest, ideas, hate mail, critiques, to anything else you guys can think of is appreciated. Thanks! Ash
