Found this excellent article on idotcom.us
I have long since forgotten where I first read this, but I hope this will help an iPhone developer looking to simplify the process for sending their app to their user(s) via AdHoc.
Create a View-Based application project in xcode like so:
I named mine HelloWorld ( How original!! ). After telling XCode [...]
There are a few ways of transferring data over the web, the one I’ve chosen for this sample is XML. One fantastic thing Apple has done is, they’ve made the ability to export & import basic Class’s like NSData, NSDate, NSString, NSNumber, NSDictionary and NSArray in an XML format. This makes it very easy to transfer [...]
It turns out that Mac OS X for years, and iPhone OS since inception, has been shipped with a perfectly good regular expressions engine. This engine is based on the ICU specification, so it works perfectly with unicode and is well on par with PCRE for functionality. This framework is simply called ICU Core, and has [...]

This is not as hard as people think it is, and it certainly does not require use of the Mail.app that comes with the iPhone, nor does it require low level socket [...]

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://maps.google.com/maps"]];
which gives you something like this:
Getting slightly more interesting, we can specify the latitude/longitude (”ll“) flag to tell the maps application to launch at a specific location (in this case, my workplace):
NSString *latlong = @”-33.874559,151.219575″;NSString *url = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=%@",
[latlong stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[[UIApplication [...]

List/Display YouTube Videos With MagpieRSS
Late last year, Google made a switch from the old YouTube API and integrated it into it’s GData API. While an understandable move, it does somewhat annoy me that the old REST method is being depreciated in August 2008 because I don’t particularly feel like updating my code
Alas, [...]
The YouTube APIs Terms of Service permits commercial use of the APIs under certain conditions, and in most cases, as long as you play fair, you are free (and highly encouraged) to develop great iPhone apps using the YouTube APIs and sell them in the iTunes App Store.
An iPhone app that uses the YouTube APIs typically [...]
