Don't worry, I am sure John Gruber will write up a negative spin on it
soon and make iOS devs feel superior again. :)
Android is also exciting because of how it tries to conjugate the
communities, just fell over this story:

Agreed, I've often thought about recording walkthroughs of code or
project introductions, but most people seem to recoil at the

I enjoyed Episode 338, esp. near the 19:30 mark where someone (?)
referred to software archaeology as the main challenge of code
maintenance.
He asks about making original intent more explicit in code, wikis,

My question: why not use video? Any viewer of YouTube knows that

I think the handset manufacturers and telco's are more responsible for

Not to write Android itself, its SDK, or its tools (like Tor, and
Kirill, and Chet, and so many other well-known Java GUI people are
doing), but rather to write new and novel Android apps to make the
platform as a whole more compelling:

Looks awesome. But I still think those who want changes to GAE are in
denial about what it takes to scale.

There isn't anything that prevents an app developer from releasing an

When you say it like that, it sounds pretty bad!

Hi,
A big day for Google: Android shipped the most smartphones in Q4/2010,

I haven't heard this from any official source, but I belive it's to
