No luck in the Android contest, but hey as we only had like 3 weeks to learn the platform and write the application, it wasn’t really unexpected. Congratulations to everyone who did make the top 50.
Looking forward to seeing some of the entries…

Android Developer Challenge

Posted in News on April 23rd, 2008 by matt

Craig and I (no relation despite the common surname) submitted an application into the Google Android Developer challenge. We only came across android about three weeks ago, and as we both have a full time job and families, it was a bit of a push to learn as much as we could about the platform and code an app in two weeks. It was a bit close to the wire, and we took full advantage of the time difference on day now known as “can’t type tuesday”. At about 3:30am we finally submitted the application, a Podcast down loader and player.

So the long wait ’till May 5th continues…. a 1 in 35 chance isn’t that bad…. is it?
