So, I finally had some time this week to get back onto Google Maps, and it’s been pretty good thus far. I started by trying to figure out how to pull images out of WebKit’s spiderweb. Sadly the WebResourceLoadDelegate never actually provides you with the response data, so you have to go querying the WebDataSource… Read more
Well, I never thought it would happen, but it turns out one of those annoying chores of uni work actually paid off, in a non-too-trivial way.
