I have been poking around with the Twitter framework for a bit and I'm wondering, is there an easy way to retrieve the lastest tweet from a user instead of a ton at once?
Thanks in advance!
You should use either TWRequest or SLRequest (iOS 6+). First you have to get your twitter account with ACAccount. Here's a example.
And then, you have to perform a request to the twitter API to get the last tweets. You can set the cardinality, as many other things trough the different params you will find her.
The request can be performed either with TWRequest (deprecated in iOS 6) or with SLRequest (introduced in iOS 6). Here an example of how to determine which one to use.
You have to remember to link the frameworks.

I am very new to iOS (just started), and need to implement requests to REST web service (Get, Post, Put). Can somebody suggest me library for this ? (I found SIKHttpRequest but I cannot find inside demo to choose between Get, Post and Put. I am using ios 6)
AFNetworking is one of the best open-source communication libs.

RestKit is there. Think of it also.
ASI is a great library asi-http-request . Also see here for an opinion on it.

The best way is JSON. For movies you can use http://www.omdbapi.com/. Is an unofficial api for IMDB.
The JSON response from the api can be consumed using NSURLConnection you can check apple's documentation or you can simply use RestKit.

There is some tutorial or sample of iOS 5.1 integration with Facebook? I've tried the one on Facebook developer site, but I get error on retaining the properties https://developers.facebook.com/docs/mobile/ios/build/. I'm really fresh on IOS, so if you can help I would be grateful!
You're most likely getting an error using retain because when you created your new project Xcode asked you if you would like to use Automatic Reference Counting (ARC) and you selected the check box (I think it is selected by default). ARC disallows manual memory management calls such as retain. Upload the line in question and I'll edit this post to show you how to fix it.

I've already released several app-books for children and the number of books is quite big.
What I want to do is create a book-stand (like news stand in iOS) and get the book together.
I think there is no way to get my apps in one app(the book-stand...) so I'm trying to remake all my previous work(the app-books) and create new app(book stand).
However, each app-book has its own interactive objects so I have no idea how to do this.
Is there any good document or any tips for this?
Can your books be made via iBooks Author? How are they interactive? If you have to go down the custom store route, I would look at epub and HTML5.
Check out the Baker Framework or HPub. Also check out various interactive PDF SDKs out there.

I'm creating rails application where it allow users to add geo-location data for restaurants, shops, etc., to a (Google) map and query it.
First I started with http://geoapi.com, as there is a feature for creating our own entities and querying them. But the service doesn't support my country well. So, I decided to create and store the geo-location data on my own database.
Can someone please tell me what are the best gems/plugins available for this?
I found these, but I'd like to get some feedback from you. Thanks

I would reccomend PostGIS and then use a Ruby Connector.
