"统计显示:Android手机族喜欢实用软件而非游戏"

有统计表示,截至到上周五,下载次数超过1w的,应用占3/4

其实这个不难理解,就拿我来说,我就喜欢挑各种比较实用的软件来用。而且应用软件涉猎面广,包罗万象,数量也众多。

对于游戏来说,爱好游戏的玩家肯定是买方便玩游戏的终端,而G1怎么看都没定位到游戏终端上,看着就“生活化”,而非“游戏化”。

转:Android is now available as open source

Today is a big day for Android, the Open Handset Alliance, and the open-source community. All of the work that we've poured into the mobile platform is now officially available, for free, as the Android Open Source Project.

You'll be hearing a lot about Android devices. We've all put a lot of effort into the first Android device, and I'm really happy with the way it turned out. But one device is just the beginning.

Android is not a single piece of hardware; it's a complete, end-to-end software platform that can be adapted to work on any number of hardware configurations. Everything is there, from the bootloader all the way up to the applications. And with an Android device already on the market, it has proven that it has what it takes to truly compete in the mobile arena.

Even if you're not planning to ship a mobile device any time soon, Android has a lot to offer. Interested in working on a speech-recognition library? Looking to do some research on virtual machines? Need an out-of-the-box embedded Linux solution? All of these pieces are available, right now, as part of the Android Open Source Project, along with graphics libraries, media codecs, and some of the best development tools I've ever worked with.

Have a great idea for a new feature? Add it! As an open source project, the best part is that anyone can contribute to Android and influence its direction. And if the platform becomes as ubiquitous as I hope it will, you may end up influencing the future of mobile devices as a whole.

This is an exciting time for Android, and we're just getting started. It takes a lot of work to keep up with the changes in the mobile industry. But we want to do more than just keep up; we want to lead the way, to try things out, to add the new features that everyone else is scrambling to keep up with. But we can't do it without your help.

What will you do with Android?

Android Market

Android Market是一个完全开放的地方,到目前为止,Google不会对在Market上发布程序的任何开发者们收取费用,而开发者们只需填写一个简单的申请表,就可以在Market上发布他们的程序,不需要更多复杂的授权过程。而且目前的所有程序,到年底为止,都是免费的!程序开发者直接面对用户,不需要什么中间人。

不知道写程序的是不是不需要钱?^_^

喜欢google的G1

palm曾经阐述的禅道是simple, is the best!
简单的生活,简单的快乐,也许我一直在追求这种惬意的、有条不紊的生活方式。

生活的压力在这种简简单单的生活方式下,幻化的无影无踪。

G1对我最大的吸引力就是那种简单的程序、那种让生活方便的惬意。只需要一个Gmail就可以随时随地的收发邮件,google talk可以让我随时可以和好友联系,日程安排也不用每天和PC同步了,查询地图也变得随心所欲了,只要有网络,一切ok。

虽说国内用不上G1,不过不影响喜欢它,关注它。

除了G1之外,我想我关注的还有Android这个开放的手机平台,让我们站在同一个起跑线上起步吧!
