Scratching the iPad Itch Part 2 - Podcast
This week's podcast is part 2 of our conversation with John Maloney and John McIntosh about Scratch. In this segment, we delved into the issues surrounding Scratch's removal from the app store - suffice to say, it wasn't the new policies they ran afoul of, it was the existing ones (using an interpreter, having downloadable, executable content for the application itself).
It was a fun talk, and things sound somewhat hopeful with respect to the app store - listen to the podcast to find out what I mean by that! To get Scratch now, visit the website and become one of the millions who've created an uploaded a project.
