Upgraded Android app is live
I’ve given Journalist at Large — Alex Johnson, the self-indulgent Android app I built, an upgrade. The main features are the ability to show more than 10 entries per page/tab, more feedback options and the nuking of the ad. If you like what you find here on this blog, you can find it in a handy Android version several ways:
• QR code. Snap a photo of the QR image at the right in your QR-app-enabled device.
(Eventually, you should be able to find it in the Market on your device itself, in the News and Magazines category. That takes a little time to propagate.)
UPDATE: It’s now available in the Market on devices. Just search for “Alex Johnson journalist.”
Wait … I’m an app?
Just for kicks, I thought I’d turn this blog into an Android app, partly as a test and partly for sheer vanity.
The app, JournalistAtLarge, merely present the 10 most recent posts in a pretty way, with options to star and share items and to change the theme. It uses the free AppYet service, and if I like it, I’ll probably convert it to a full app.
Until then, it’s not on the Market, but you can directly download the apk file here.
Let me know what you think!
