Personally, I love the size

Auston321 | Sat, 01/01/2011 - 05:20.

Personally, I love the size of the EVO 4G, because it still fits in my pocket. My impression testking 70-294 and testking 642-373, however, that Dell Streak and the Sony Ericsson phone will be too cumbersome for everyday use, particularly in the second device. Can I use this as my main phone Maybe . I'd definitely love to try one at a time and take the tough decisions.

I like how someone built an online engine for MMOs. This should hopefully lower the barrier for people with some creative gaming ideas to get into this market.

Crash Reports

Kevin Gaudin | Tue, 06/29/2010 - 00:13.

Devs should have a look to ACRA (Application Crash Reports for Android) to make their apps send full crash reports to a Google Docs spreadsheet. It's opensource (Apache license), easy to add to your apps, and highly configurable.

Great list - Bonjour anyone?

davidmp | Mon, 06/28/2010 - 16:08.

Does anyone know of a source for a zero config network lib for the Android, (sometimes called Bonjour or mDNS). I have tried getting the jMDNS to work but with no luck.

Thanks,
