Day two in Gent, subject Android programming

Basics of Android programming squeezed in one day. Not very well planned from my side. The students learned graphical and debugging tools of SDK, but we had only very little time to do actual programming, which is always much more motivating. We make a simple game where we used media player and accelerometer. Again comments will be or I am anticipating them to be found from blogs:

Social Media in Mobile device

On Wednesday I was giving a lecture and workshop on subject Social Media in Mobile device. The subject is more or less familiar for me, but place was not. I am at the moment in Belgium, Gent. I gathered information of different social media applications like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, qik, bambuser, Blogger which I am now using and future trends. After short theory lesson we had workshop where students tried these applications. I could not help it but I had to mention the way Facebook collects and keeps the user data. Student comments can be found from Blogger pages:
