What's that application on the Springboard? Why, if we weren't the Mac hating godless heretics we keep getting told we were, I'd say that was a copy of Chronicle on an iPod Touch sitting on top of a MacBook!
I kid, actually. We're not Mac hating, or godless. That actually is Chronicle running on an iPod Touch. It's nowhere near complete (as the bold red message says at startup: This is a pre-release alpha development version of iChronicle. For the love of all that's holy, do not distribute!!! but it's definitely being worked on.
So yeah, that's what's been occupying a bit of time lately at our offices. And bonus points to anyone who manages to work out just how dedicated we are to our work from this screenshot.
Because we can't actually do the same as we do for the Windows version of Chronicle though (allow you to write your own integration providers) what would you suggest we ship with the iPhone version? It's quite a way away though, so this is all theoretical at the moment. We've been considering a couple of options - one is to ship the main providers (activeCollab, BaseCamp, Harvest, etc), and the other was to ship a single provider which connects to something that we're going to call "Chronicle Server" for the moment, which will handle proxying the data into any service provider supported by Chronicle (presumably Chronicle Server will load the same TSPs that Chronicle for Windows does). If we go the second route, I expect we'll actually do the same with the Mac version as well so that Windows-based TSPs can work on the Mac (albeit via the Windows-based Chronicle Server).
Any thoughts from those of you using Chronicle?
