But just how thorough is this "daily walk through"? Today, there are
14645 questions tagged 'android'. How do you choose which ones you
really look at?
Worse yet, some idiot decided there should be ONE tag for 'android-
sdk', but then three separate tags for 'android-sdk-2.1', 'android-
sdk-2.2' a
But that assumes that people tag them accurately, so that they CAN be
found. That assumption is wildly optimistic: look at how many
meaningless variations of the non-descript tag 'android' there are in
Stack Overflow. I have yet to find a way to do a meaningful tag-based
search in Stack Overflow fo

Cool! I didn't know gmane was accessible
Yes, the distinction has been getting blurred. This is a bad thing.
Discontinuing this group only makes the blurring worse, as more and
more beginners will move to android-developers -- where beginning

When I first saw Google announce the existence of Stack Overflow and
suggest it for posting questions instead of this forum, I found it

People post on this list because they want to help beginners. People
