<p><strong><a href="http://tactotum.com/blog/2008/11/10/iphone-backup-extractor-possibilities/">iPhone Backup Extractor possibilities</a></strong></p> Nick Ludlam points out that iTunes backs up your iPhone call records by copying across a sqlite database—which means it wouldn’t be at all hard to extract the logs in to a larger database. Could make for a really cool addition to a private lifestreaming application. <p><small></small>Via <a href="http://nick.recoil.org/2008/11/10/thoughts-on-parsing-iphone-archives">nick.recoil.org</a></small></p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/backup">backup</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/iphone">iphone</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/itunes">itunes</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/lifestream">lifestream</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/nick-ludlam">nick-ludlam</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/sqlite">sqlite</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/simon/2755759829/">Reviews of the Pownce app on the iPhone app store on Flickr</a></strong></p> I had to stitch together a screenshot because you can’t actually link to content in the App Store (unless you don’t care that people without iTunes won’t be able to follow your link). Three out of the four reviews complain about the OAuth browser authentication step, which is frustrating because Pownce have implemented it so well. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/appstore">appstore</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/flickr">flickr</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/iphone">iphone</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/itunes">itunes</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/oauth">oauth</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/phishing">phishing</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/pownce">pownce</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/security">security</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/usability">usability</a></p>
