With iOS 6 having just been announced, the beta version of the upcoming firmware has now been seeded. And, as usual, this first released build of iOS 6 beta is only available to registered members of Apple's developer program, so if you're a non-developer hoping to catch a glimpse of the future, sadly, you're going to have to wait.
Apple has delivered in the hardware stakes at today's WWDC, and after running through many new little quirks of iOS 6, iOS chief Scott Forstall has shown off a brand-new feature/app called Passbook, which looks to be the fruit of the rumored Organize app.
With the rumor mill having been in overdrive over the past couple of months, Apple has finally released those all-important details of its upcoming iOS 6, and as it turns out, most of the suspected features of the fruit company's forthcoming mobile operating system are included, along with a few surprises.
If, like us, you're already perched on the edge of your seat waiting for Apple's WWDC to kick off, then be pleased that you don't have much longer to wait.
One of the most popular aspects of any current day website or news-type blog is the inclusion of social sharing options and buttons that allow readers and visitors to share the website content through social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Google+.

I'm not sure which is more annoying; the fact Apple has decided to allow the native iOS YouTube app to fester with little-to-no improvement since the initial iPhone launched all the way back in 2007, or that whenever a YouTube link is selected, one is forced - by default - to view the video in aforementioned app.
With WWDC just two days away, you could be forgiven for thinking the end of the world was nigh considering the non-stop coverage throughout the tech world. Despite no promise of an iPad or iPhone - the two main instigators of rampant Cupertino commentary, there's still plenty to look forward to, and with so much having been mentioned over the past few days/weeks/months, we take a more classified look at what we're expecting to see.
There are many apps over at the iTunes App Store which purport to over the very best assistance to those leading busy, productive lives. Unfortunately, many don't just don’t live up to our expectation, but OmniPlan for iPad is a truly wonderful, near-flawless example of an app for those constantly juggling several tasks or projects at any given time.
The closer we draw to WWDC and the imminent announcement of the eagerly-awaited iOS 6, the more rampant and seemingly audacious the rumors are getting. From what we've gathered so far, the sixth edition of Apple's iconic mobile operating system will feature a brand new, Cupertino-inspired Maps app, Facebook integration, Baidu Search, and a whole host of other delicious features.
With every launch of a new a new iOS device and every major Apple conference or media event, there is inevitably going to be a seemingly never-ending string of rumors flying around the world wide web. In the past, we have seen some pretty far fetched and out-there speculation, as well as some conjecture that resonates and turns out to be true.
