I wast thinking that interface such as Scratch [1] for kids
or BYOB[2] for adultus would be so fun on the ipad.
Scratch is an MIT project based on squeak that allows kids to program by dragging blocks in the screen.
And BYOB is an extension to scratch to use functional programming.

- elviejo 16y agoAs a matter of fact they loosened the rules, as direct result of the efforts of John Mcintosh to be able to run Scratch on the Ipad. However his efforts although were enough to change apple policy, they weren't successful enough to get Scratch to run on the ipad. :-( Here is a quick summary of the story: http://www.mobilewikiserver.com/Scratch.html http://www.mobilewikiserver.com/Scratch.html http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/main/2010/12/john-mcintosh-at-smalltalk-solutions-11/ http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/main/2010/12/john-mcintosh-at...
