Good write-up. A couple of syntax errors.

In the TWITTER PROFILE PICTURES paragraph:
"The I construct a NSURL"

Should be "Then"

Asynchronous NSURLConnections:
The approach I’ll use here is to the load the system-provided

Drop the extra "the" in front of load.

In your final code listing, the constructor has "bigger = href" but neither variable is ever used in that method.

I don't think I would title the post as you have. You are optimizing a little bit by moving to an asynchronous picture load, but that isn't necessarily a common event for table views. Maybe call it "Asynchronous Table View Loading With MacRuby." That pretty much gets to the heart of it.
