title: dealloc or releasing best practice in objective-c?
body: <p>I just simply release objects as such:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[myObj release];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have seen others add:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[myObj release]; myObj = nil;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is the latter more advantageous because now there will never be a reference to that pointer?</p>
