A few days ago Bejoty let me know about this, and I completely forgot. It looks like Hey Ocean, (Ashleigh Ball's band) is looking for a coder to help them build an app.
So if you have any connection whatsoever with Rainbow Dash or Applejack, and want to give them a hand, go hit up their twitter and let them know!
You want cookies don't you?

IF ONLY I KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT ITECHNOLOGY!
They know how to ride the brony wave.
Create a Twitter to reply? Worth it.
Well sure, go right ahead and make an app for iWhatever. Enjoy Apple's approval process.
Go Android and have your app available the second you're done.
The best of luck to y'all.
They're also a pretty good chill band.
Damn my luck for living in the same city and having the entirely wrong skillset...
an iOS version of GameMaker is going to be released soon. If you wanna make games that is.
And then they had free apps for life.
Wait. I don't have a Mac. Another opportunity gone.
Oh wait, she's looking for a coder? ... I'm not much of a coder, and I don't know anything about what Apple uses...
Aww, they'll bake you cookies too. Aren't they sweet? And no, I don't mean just the cookies. lol :)
Go figure, the Seattle Bronies meetup group posted this a while back (Vancouver is closeby). Too bad I have an Android phone and know Java instead of an iPhone and Objective C...
my body is ready and willing! to bad i know not codeing
Bronies are not your personal army.
No, wait, that's Anonymous.
Bronies are totally your personal army!
I wish they have fanmade pony apps for free, it's just that soundboard.
Too bad the only programming experience I have is with Game Maker and Visual Basic 6. Unless you need me to program the battle system or gameplay out side of combat of a turn-based rpg, I can't help you.
Ashleigh Ball has cried "brony" and let slip the coders of celebrity worship.
sadly, I'm the only brony in my group of nerdy-coder friends... And I dont know how to code...
Brb, learning to code for iOS
Tech Bronies!! CHARGE!
Never have I wished I knew how to code Apple products than I do right now...
Right... iPhone or iPad...
Guess @heyoceanband are proponents of closed and restricted platforms. Sorry, not interested in promoting that braintumor of a brand.
Our god-queen beckons to us! To arms, Bronies, to arms!
@Soapy5Blasphemy! Faust is the one, true God-Queen. Ashleigh Ball is like a High Priestess or something.
...Hmmm, I wonder how the rest of the crew would fit into the power structure...
I'm a brony this long and I didn't know Ashleigh Ball was in a band?
How to Get More Coders Than You Could Ever Need: Chapter 1
Clever tapping the nerdbase right there.
iOS? Confound you, Objective-C! Such a though language :p Y u no Android? Good, plain old java ^^
Can't help with that but coincidentally, I got classes on app creating coming up next month that I wanted to try. I hope Ashleigh gets the help she needs - it does sound interesting.
I also submitted one about their Western US "
"house concerts" but you guys never published it as well...
To quote the official Facebook page:
"Do you live on the west coast of the United States? Do you want to have Hey Ocean come play at your house? We're driving north from LA starting Feb 15th and looking for houses to play and stay. No microphones, just us and some acoustic guitars. It'll sound something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abBpc1LKM6k. email us heyocean@heyocean.com if you're interested!!. :)" -dated Jan. 16 16:33
Personal Brony Horde?
It was only a matter of time.
Can't help, but I'm looking forward to seeing them on the 15th. It's great living in the same city as all the people who work on the show.
I'd be honored to offer up what meager skills I have... But first I need to figure out this new-fangled twitter you speak of.
I wish i knew how. Cookies are of my biggest weaknesses!
I tried to do iOS, but GUI programming is just so damn foreign to me. Trying to learn Obj-C and Apple's frameworks at the same time was just too much. Much happier being a sysadmin for now.
I find it hilarious that Ashleigh knows she has a horde of rabid fans at her command, and uses it. xD
I'd help but I have so much more work on at the minute than I think I can finish haha, so it would be a bad idea.
I'll help them, as long as the cookies contain copious amounts of apple.
I have a little experience with obj-c and I just finished putting a gui on top of an application so it would be nice. Thing is a prefer low level programming much more. Give me threads. Also I am a little to far from them and this could be a problem.
Wha-? Cookies? That was a low blow, Ashleigh. That was a low blow.
It's as if she has an entire army at her command. :P
As for the app, I've had no experience with Objective-C, however, I know a little Java, C, and Visual Basic. How does that help? Well, it doesn't... Sorry.
AHA! something I know how to do! * replies 4 times*
Hey, I'm currently developing a Android datalogging application for NASA.
You can see my free stuff under "spiritplumber" on android market.
I run Derpymail.
@Soapy5
You took the words straight from my mouth!
Actually, im in the middle of a computer science degree and ive been programming for a long time. Unfortunatley CS degrees suck up about %100 of your time and i dont have a mac either :(
Wish i could help
What a voice actor of the franchise isn need of aid!? Rally Bronies and Pegasisters! Sound the Conch of the Magic of Friendship! *HAAAAAARRRRRROOOOOUUUUU!*
Dammit, I only work in Android....
*checks resume*
DARN, I only know VB C# and C++, , Nooooooooo!
How did I not see this tweet? I follow Hey Ocean and never saw it. Then again, I haven't been on Twitter all that much lately. I'm just barely getting a handle on C++, so this is definitely out of my league. Hopefully someone in the community can put out something.
A modest proposal:
What if those of us who knew coding banded together as one large programming team? With such a large force banded together, there is no way any one of us would become overloaded, and absolute certainty that we would have the expertise needed!
I have 4 years' Java experience, by the way.
Objective-C is AWESOME.
I wish I could help, ma'am. But iphones and ipads are an abomination meant to curtail user freedom and rights.

Cookies? DO WANT! But I have no knowledge of techs. Internets, how do they work???
Please make an Android app!
@Ion Storm Says you.
Holy buck! My oportunity
"programming is easy. like a single man designing a car all by himself and without any prior knowledge"
...count me out
Oh crap... One of them just realized that we'll pretty much do whatever they ask us to do!
@heyocean thou are worthy we are not
the full might of the brony community will stand behind you. because we.... are servents to the cause... and what is that my fellow bronies?.. Spreading the magic that is friendship!!! if only i could code ios, but alas i only know java
