Android and eStarling: endless possibilities

Today’s post is for all of the nerds–and maybe a much wider audience, too-among the eStarling community. What does the eStarling digital frame have to do with Google’s release of a new software that allows 6th-graders to make their own Android applications? Can you say “home-brewed eStarling app”?

According to Google’s release of Android’s App Inventor, eStarling  owners with no background in code writing or computer science could potentially write an application that snaps a photo and emails it to your frame all in ONE touch of a button. Now that’s amazing.

From what I’ve read, Google’s new product breaks down writing Android Applications into something as simple as putting together a lego set. We’ll get to test drive the App Inventor on Monday, and so can all of you Android phone users. I’m excited to share what I find, and I hope that everyone who is interested takes a shot at making an eStarling App for the Android and shares their experiences. Happy programming!
