If you have followed my blog, a couple of months ago I started to develop a Rightmove app for Android. I got to the stage where I felt I should seek permission to release the app using the data supplied from Rightmove before I continued. Unfortunately they refused. Never mind.. A few week ago I started [...]
Another week means another Android application that I’ve managed to push out This week its a UK lottery results app which obtains the latest lottery results from the interwebs and displays it all nicely on the users screen. The application will work from Android version 1.6, so theres a good chance your handset will support [...]

This service produces [...]
To celebrate my new purchase for a Google Nexus One – I’ve started looking into Android development. Android is built in Java and since I studied Java at University I decided to have a little play. From experience of using Android there are times when on screen messages pop up for whatever reason. In Android [...]
Java is still fairly new to me, I have about 4 months exposure to it. One thing that I like about the developer community is that there are various sources that can explain how to do something in anything. I often finding myself reading someones blog whilst trying to figure something out. So I’m returning [...]
My first semester back at University is almost complete, only two assignments (both completed) to hand in and then I’m done! This semester has been quite easy, I’ve had to do 6 assignments in total, 4 in Java and 2 in .Net. All the projects have been to create some kind of application, be it [...]
