Treehouse iPad App
I've been championing my sponsor, Treehouse, for a long time. Their online video tutorials are high quality, their price point is excellent for those who don't want to pay the extortion that is traditional college, and they provide education for a variety of languages and essential business skills. I've enjoyed Treehouse on desktop over the past months and today Treehouse launched an iPad app so we enjoy the learning experience on mobiles. Here's a few screens of the iPad experience!

click actions from doing...
![NSFW Blocker Using MooTools and CSS]()
One of my guilty pleasures is scoping out the latest celebrity gossip from PerezHilton.com, DListed.com, and JoBlo.com. Unfortunately, these sites occasionally post NSFW pictures which makes checking these sites on lunch a huge gamble -- a trip to HR's office could be just a click away.

Awesome! This looks gorgeous! Will test this out as soon as I come home. :) Maybe I’m just blind, but a direct iTunes link would have been useful (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/treehouse-learn-programming/id664753504?ls=1&mt=8)
Never mind… unbelievable how blind I was xD
I almost bought an iPad just to use this app but it would be great to have an Android version.
