Show HN: iOS Mix - a list of useful iOS projects

At first glance, it looks like all of the content on this site has been scraped off the site I run, Cocoa Controls (http://www.cocoacontrols.com). I really hope I'm wrong about this.

See, for example, this pull to refresh control: http://iosmix.com/content/pull-refresh-tableview-ios

And here it is on Cocoa Controls: http://www.cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/pull-to-...

You'll notice that the screenshot is from a Heroku app I built a couple years ago that lists my Heroku websites. I also wrote the text that appears on this page.

Here's an excerpt from the site's database (as seen through a Heroku console):

  irb(main):005:0> c = Control.find(1)
  irb(main):006:0> c.description
  => "As pioneered in Twitter for iPhone (née Tweetie 2), pull the table view down to expose a refresh control. Keep pulling and release, and the TableView will reload."
  irb(main):007:0> c.created_at
  => Tue, 04 Jan 2011 00:39:20 UTC +00:00

Here's another example:

On Github (https://github.com/shu223/Stats), it's description reads: "In-app monitering memory usage in iOS Apps."

iosmix, http://iosmix.com/content/stats-ios, reads: "In-app monitoring of system conditions for iOS apps. Displays: The variation of memory usage [kB]; The total memory usage [kB]; The variation of CPU time [msec]; The number of UIView subclasses."

Cocoa Controls, http://www.cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/stats, reads: "In-app monitoring of system conditions for iOS apps. Displays: The variation of memory usage [kB]; The total memory usage [kB]; The variation of CPU time [msec]; The number of UIView subclasses."

This is because on October 7, I edited the description.

  Howdy - The control Stats (1265) was just changed by Aaron Brethorst.

  Here are the changes:

   description: In-app monitering memory usage in iOS Apps. => In-app monitoring of system conditions for iOS apps. Displays: The variation of memory usage [kB]; The total memory usage [kB]; The variation of CPU time [msec]; The number of UIView subclasses.

I would prefer Cocoa Controls: http://www.cocoacontrols.com Great job on your project, but instead of moving on with this one, I'd recommend you to contact Aaron (owner of Cocoa Controls) and maybe work on that project together, because that site works just fine and already has a lot of repositories.

I don't think there has to be an answer to this question, but any plans to differentiate yourself from Cocoa Controls?

Nice collection.

Suggestion: It would be nice if the licence type was included in the descriptions.

This is nice collection of ios projects. This is good starting point of a newbie.

Wow. This is a fantastic collection. Thank you!
