Looks great thanks for sharing. Here are a few things that came to mind while browsing the list. In the browse view it would be helpful to show more of the description as many of them are cut before they get to the point. Also including the visit official website button as well as show details would be a nice shortcut. On the details page it would be great to include an image where available.

Thanks for the feedback!

I agree the descriptions need to be better when browsing. I plan to increase the length and have them truncate at a word boundary.

Good idea to include images when looking at the detail page. I'll add it to my todo list.

Good stuff, but enough with curated already. Everything that has a specific person behind it has suddenly became curated now - be it a blog, a linkdump, another "Top 10" list and whatever else. It looks like at attempt to look stately and more grand than the reality permits, and that's just tacky.

Thanks for the feedback. I was going to go with "iosframeworks.com - Just another page of links", but I didn't like the ring of it.

Google tells me that curate means "Select, organize, and look after the items in (a collection or exhibition)", which seems like an accurate enough description for me. I'm ok with it coming across as tacky to some.
