That is why I recommend people ask their questions on StackOverflow: -- It is better designed for monitoring serious volumes of questions (e.g., color coding for questions lacking answers) -- Tagging allows cross-posting to be natural and humane, so a question that might be Android and might be Java could be tagged for both, and might get answers from either support group -- There is a stronger culture around what is and is not a reasonable question, plus means to flag unreasonable answers The vast majority of Android questions on StackOverflow get at least one answer -- I'm dubious whether this list gets anywhere near that response rate. Links to StackOverflow, particularly the questions tagged for Android, appear at the bottom of every post on this list, so developers cannot complain that they are unaware of the option. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
