Ya I am going to write a follow up. You need to use NSExtensionContext instead of sharing code between app and extension.

ctruman··on Startup School 2013 - Facebook's Group
I'd love to be added as well @iAmChrisTruman
ctruman··on Ask HN: Startup School worth it?
I am going for the first time and making a drive up from LA (8~ hours). I think just the chance to be up close and personal with some of the biggest successes of Silicon Valley would be more than worth it. Hearing their stories and talks will be interesting and motivating whatever you are currently doing in your career.
ctruman··on App Store Pricing: Worth at Least as Much as a Cup of Coffee
Solid defense of the business, and I tend to agree with you. At the same though, you have to admit that with 5C and a bigger, broader apple, the apps that will win big will be apps that profit off volume and not individual sales.
ctruman··on Making a Little Printer publication — a guide
This is awesome! I remember when this printer was announced and I got super excited about providing content for it. This is an excellent guide to get started working with it!
ctruman··on Check out my startup! (advice)
Muccccccch better! Much easier to focus on the center content.
ctruman··on Check out my startup! (advice)
Sounds like an interesting product. First reaction is that the background is a little crazy and a bit distracting from your content. Might change the background to a light gray.
ctruman··on Living in the Bay Area for under $400
Awesome man, glad to hear you are planning on paying it back. What else do you want to do with CrowdDare? Any other ideas for getting PR for it?
ctruman··on Living in the Bay Area for under $400
Awesome story man, props to you for taking a leap of faith. Slightly questionable morals living out of the hackerspace, but it sounds like its working out for you. Best of luck with your site and everything!
ctruman··on Show HN: I'm a solo founder and I need testers for my routing/place finding app
Found a bug where if you tap on "Somewhere else?"the keyboard pops up and the view scrolls and then I tap the info button then I come back and I can't scroll back up. Screenshot: http://monosnap.com/image/PX49wFZhtf3PJ40BBnGFMFYO3

It is not clear what the #m means in the search results. For example mine says "Open Now - Starbucks 49m" What is the 49m? 49 minutes away? 49 miles off my course? 49 meters away from my current location? Needs some sort of table header that explains.
ctruman··on Show HN: I'm a solo founder and I need testers for my routing/place finding app
Downloaded the current build in the app store. Pretty cool so far. First comment is that it is a bit frustrating that when you search, the UI is disabled and the spinner shows up. I would like to be able to tap the back button and cancel the search quickly.

Haha yup I have been guilty of many of these. A little too close to home for me haha
ctruman··on How to find a profitable App Niche – Part 2
Anyone else heard of http://www.straply.com/ before? It seems to have some cool data, any idea how they rank keywords by search volume?
ctruman··on Mac, iOS and RubyMotion Testing on Travis CI
This great for the iOS community. I hope this will introduce the ability for some establish iOS libraries to prove they are ready for enterprise distribution by using CI.
ctruman··on Climber: From Hackathon to App Store Submission in Two Weeks
Climber is one of the first apps that shows the true potential of App.net. This takes App.net from just a paid twitter, to a central service that provides functionality to other apps. If people trust App.net to hold your videos, photos, posts, and other content, people will be stoked to try your app as opposed to the latest Instagram competitor that makes no promises about your data.

Agreed! What defines easy and up to date to you? How would you like the book to be laid out?
ctruman··on Your First iOS App
Glad to see some books coming from the community!
