I use these in objective C, I usually create a data object and stick the networking function in it as well. Some use core data, but I haven't found a need for it yet. static MySingleton *sharedSingleton; + (void)initialize { static BOOL initialized = NO; if(!initialized) { initialized = YES; sharedSingleton = [[MySingleton alloc] init]; } }
