It appears the Tweetable plugin I was using to push notices to my Twitter followers of new blog posts died on its own over the weekend and made it so every page on the blog was coming up blank. Not cool!
Besides putting out blog fires I’ve just finished Milestone 2 for the Android project and I’m moving on to Milestone 3. Milestone 2 taught lots of GUI creation lessons for Android. The lesson being that it takes a LONG time to make GUIs on the Android compared to the iPhone. The one thing I like better on the Android though is that since you’re coding the GUI by hand with XML you’re already thinking of screen “scalability”, i.e. you’re already factoring in different resolutions and orientations. I’ve had rotating the app working since day one. So far on my iPhone projects multiple orientations have been afterthoughts (even though they shouldn’t be).
