Thanks worked great.  great to see a great fellow Youtuber

@technologycrazy Thanks :D

I don't think anyone makes tab bar applications the official way. Any idea why they made it so weird? Is it somehow more resource efficient? My conspiracy theory is that they just want to limit the number of apps released by dumb people.

[supertecnoboff]

@UIViewController Yeah I know. Its so weird how Apple have done it in the iOS 4 SDK. Maybe they have done it to get rid of the shit developers... or maybe its a bug?

[UIViewController]

@supertecnoboff In SDK 3 people still did not follow the official way. They would always delete the SecondViewController and make their own.

[supertecnoboff]

@UIViewController Really? I thought the SDk 3.0 was the correct way of doing things.

Would you please explain why you can don't use each xib file for each tab, I think it would be easier for reuse. And I am not sure if xib will be more maintainable comparing with your solution which aggregate all UI elements in one place.

Just watched both your part 1 and 2 tutorial, makes great sense, especially love how you just get straight to the meat and potatoes so to speak of what things do and how it works.

I was wondering if you had any advice on say in my application going from a regular UIView into UITabBarView, thanks in advance if you can help!
