Welcome to the open-source Codepath Android Cliffnotes! Our goal is to become the central crowdsourced resource for complete and up-to-date Android content and tutorials. Just take me to the notes!
We have guides for everyone whether you are beginner, intermediate or advanced. Want to learn how to use the ActionBar or the ins and outs of fragments? We got that. Want to learn about testing or how to build flexible user interfaces for multiple devices? We got you covered. We don't waste time with the "theoretical approach" you might get from a book. We cover exactly the things we use every day as we are developing apps for contracts.

What’s Google TV ?

Turned out that Google is also doing its own thing for the 10-foot screen. Google announced 2 versions of their famous new TV, the first is called the Buddy Box which is currently an expensive box manufactured by Sony and the second is an Integrated TV built right into the TV set that will be announced soon.

This utility was developed as part of Intervals to deal with the problems posed by certain email clients (namely Outlook 2007 and Google Gmail) when it comes to the way they handle styling contained in HTML emails. As many web developers and designers already know, certain email clients are notorious for their lack of CSS support. While attempts are being made to develop common email standards, implementation is still a ways off.
The primary problem with uncooperative email clients is that most tend to only regard inline CSS, discarding all <style> elements and links to stylesheets in <link> elements. Emogrifier solves this problem by converting CSS styles into inline style attributes in your HTML code.

Afin de vous aider dans cette démarche, Google a dévoilé quelques lignes directrices et des recommandations, et il est maintenant temps de les partager avec vous.
La chaîne YouTube Android Developers a récemment mis en ligne un épisode dans lequel on en apprend davantage sur la conception du design d’une application Android. Voici le synopsis :
“In this week’s episode, we’ll look at a simple article reader app and how to evolve its visual design iteratively, transforming it from zero to hero.”
Même si vous êtes un développeur Android aguerri, cette vidéo peut vous apporter quelques conseils. La vidéo ne dure seulement que 33 minutes.

When you want to build something for the web, it's surprisingly difficult to find out how you can implement your vision across all browsers and operating systems. You often need to search across various websites and blogs to learn how certain technologies can be used. It's kind of like a scavenger hunt, except it's not any fun.
 This scavenger hunt is soon coming to an end. Google along with the W3C and several leading internet and technology companies just announced the alpha release of Web Platform Docs. Web Platform Docs is a community-driven site that aims to become the comprehensive and authoritative source for web developer documentation.

Petit rappel pour ceux qui n’ont pas compris le titre de cet article. Google améliore constamment son algorithme afin de proposer des résultats pertinents pour les utilisateurs. Depuis plusieurs mois Google a constaté que l’algorithme original n’était plus si performant et que les résultats de recherche n’étaient plus si pertinents (la faute à l’optimisation de certains sites?).
Bref, afin de corriger le tir et de conserver sa position de leader dans le domaine des moteurs de recherche, Google a fait des mises à jours de son algorithme. La plus connue fut nommée « Panda », elle avait pour objectif de réduire l’exposition des sites avec du contenu non pertinent et de mauvaise qualité, vint ensuite Pingouin qui cette fois-ci devait éradiquer les sites qui auraient abusés sur le linking de leur site. Après ces noms d’animaux on a vu apparaitre des mises à jour sur le format des pages avec « Page Layout », sur le nombre de résultats par page, ect. Google cherche donc à trouver la bonne formule pour gagner en pertinence et pourquoi pas augmenter aussi ses revenus il ne faut surtout pas oublier cette option aussi.
