Delegates *are* often automatically registered for their delegated object's notifications, however. The differences between these and "regular" delegate methods should be apparent in the documentation, though, since the former will take a single argument of NSNotification *.

(To help the OP, not for I.S. ;) )

Delegates act like observers. They register with another object saying

chance to act on it too".

Well, no, not really. This is significantly different in that you can set an object as another object's delegate, but if it (your custom object acting as a delegate) doesn't respond to a particular delegate method, the delegating object will not call the method. In this way, you can set objA as objB's delegate and implement none of objB's delegate methods in objA ... so none will be called.
