Wouldn’t it be great to make your own apps, make a ton of money, and live the life of a developer? Thanks to iTunes U you can.
This has actually been available for a long time and it’s not news. But just in case you didn’t know about it here it is. In the iTunes U section of the iTunes Store Stanford University has a whole course on how to build iPhone applications. The course was actually taught by Apple Employees that have developed many of the iPhone apps that come with the phone. Your first assignment? Building a Twitter client. It’s pretty amazing that you can do it all for free. They even have the slides they used in the class as PDFs for download.

It will walk you through the very beginning stages during which you’ll install Xcode and the other developer tools, as well as giving you an in-depth look at these tools and how to use them. Highly recommended for any aspiring developers.
