- What are your main interests in software development?
- I am a software professional expanding my skills to the Android Platform. I have modified some applications, but I am going thru the Head First Android Development book to round out my skills and obtain a better understanding of Android capabilities. Ultimately I need to add functions to an application we use here at my work place. I need a mentor to help me get thru some of the Android syntax errors I receive and offer some guidance. Thanks, Rob
