First Android Apps

I got back to studying Android development last month. This time, I became more serious in it and have made two apps. My first app is a simple personal-use app. It's already done and I have been using it. However, I don't believe it is that worthy to be published in the Android Market. The other one is the GTUG Philippines Android app. It is now available in the Android Market. You can also scan the QR code below to install it:

It is a simple app to those who wants to have updates about the group. Using the app, users can get the latest blog posts and messages in the mailing list. It also contains links to the groups' online presence. It is just in its initial version. Feel free to download the app and give comments and suggestions.

First Chrome Extension

I just published my first Google Chrome Extension: the GTUG Philippines Chrome Extension. The extension is now available at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pbpopomlbomjpbmpfigaogeodiemmjbm or you can search for it in the Chrome Webstore.

Using this extension, you can view the latest posts in the group blog, the calendar of group events and useful GTUG Philippines links. As of now, the extension is just an initial version and I have a lot of plans on improving it. I am also very much open for comments and suggestions. After publishing my first Chrome Extension, I am thinking of doing more.

Update 1(January 14, 2011):
I just updated the Chrome Extension (now at version 1.1). There were only a few changes, mostly on the design. I am currently working on adding Twitter and Mailing List feeds, and will add other features soon.

Update 2(January 26, 2011):
I had uploaded the new version (1.2) of the GTUG Philippines Chrome Extension. It now has the Twitter feeds and there were some minor changes.

Update 3(February 12, 2011):
The Chrome Extension is now at version 1.3. I added avatars in the Twitter widget, moved images in a separate directory and added LinkedIn Group URL.

Update 4(April 14, 2011):
I continued the development of the Chrome Extension. I added the mailing list feeds and a few other changes. the latest version is now 1.4.
