Developing Android Applications in .NET - CodeProject
Image via WikipediaAccording to recent research of Gartner, the Android operating system should own 50% of mobile market share in 2012.
Android developers use primarily Java and Google-based Java libraries. While this sounds like a multi-platform strategy, the reality is a bit different:
On 6-April-2011 Novell announced the awaited release of their Mono for Android. Mono is a tool that enables mobile programmers to use C# and Microsoft Visual Studio to create .NET based applications that run on Android phones and tablets.
- Android does not use established Java standards, i.e. Java SE and ME.
- Popularity of Java among the developers is decreasing significantly over time. Instead, the most popular programming language is with no doubts C (C, C++, C# and objective C).
This can save a lot of time and money since the developers can share common code for multiple platforms including Android, iOS (using MonoTouch), Windows Phone 7, Windows desktops and Windows server.
I've been waiting for this!!!!

Automating Microsoft Excel and Word Together - CodeProject
Image via WikipediaIntroduction to article
In many cases, it is required to use MS Excel or Word in our VC++ applications. Automating them in VC is easy, but when it is done as a DLL in VB, it is simply a few lines of code, and the result lies in its simplicity. Here, I have designed a DLL in MS Visual Basic which automates both MS Excel and MS Word. Upon importing the DLL to our VC workspace, we can use both these capabilities.

Silverlight Application with WCF Service and Child Windows as Popups - Part 1 - CodeProject
In this application, I create a meeting scheduler using which one can schedule a meeting and call other colleagues to attend the meeting. This application uses the WCF services to fetch and save records. I have also used Silverlight child window to get the saved contacts to send mail to them. Child window is used as popup for adding contacts in the scheduler forms. This application is very useful for all those to just started learning Silverlight and have confusion with the basics of its interaction with database only through WCF services or webservices.

Android Usb Port Forwarding - CodeProject
The Android architecture does not allow to start communication from the Android to the host through the USB cable.The opposite is possible, using the Google "Android Debug Bridge" (ADB in short).
This tool will act as a tunnel between the Android client application and the host server. It is a software implementation of a router doing IP port forwarding.

WPF Elements Cloud - CodeProject
I suppose everyone knows such thing as Tags Cloud. Usually you can meet it on some kinds of web-sites, where this control represents a container with certain quantity of links and when you enter a mouse cursor on it these links move on the virtual ellipsoid (or sphere) while you move the mouse.
At this article I try to explain how to create such control using WPF. Also you can export this code to Silverlight (making some adjustments) and make a Silverlight User Control.

Tutorial : Advanced Silverlight Out of Browser- Introduction - The Official Microsoft Silverlight Site
Image via WikipediaOverview:Silverlight out-of-browser enables you to create desktop applications. Using elevated trust further opens the possibilities of what your application can do. This lab is designed to further explore what can be down with an out-of-browser Silverlight application.
In the lab you'll create an application that imports data directly from Excel. Along the way you'll learn how to interact with the hard drive, check for updates, and work with Excel from Silverlight.
You'll start by dragging and dropping Excel files onto the application. Next, you’ll call Excel through the AutomationFactory and process the data. You’ll create files and directories on the hard drive to store temporary data. Finally, you’ll learn how to check for application updates. The Silverlight application that you'll create is shown next:

WCF service that will push content into a Silverlight application [Push notification] - CodeProject
Push notification is a term that has been around a lot. Almost every SmartPhone manufactured has an option for enabling push notification. The word 'PUSH' is a contrast to 'PULL'. It means rather than pulling the content from the server or requesting from the server, the server pushes the content or sends the response as soon as an update is available. On mobiles, this technology is a great battery saver. In web technologies, it saves a lot of server request traffic. There are tons of articles available on the internet about implementing this technique, but I found MSDN the best. Therefore, I went ahead and made the MSDN tutorial even easier for beginners. Remember, this is beginners article, but the idea of implementing a real life application stays around this. You can recode it as best as you can.
Over here, we are going to see a Silverlight application requesting for stock prices of Yahoo! The server will start pushing the latest stock prices. The stock prices are random numbers. The application is based on some assumptions.

Sony announces two Android tablets - News at GameSpot
Sony has announced two tablets based on Android 3.0. Sony has today announced two new tablet devices, currently codenamed S1 and S2. Both devices will run Google's Android 3.0 "Honeycomb" operating system, sport the Tegra 2 processor, can connect to both Wi-Fi and 3G/4G, and are pegged for release in the global market during fall 2011. Sony has not announced a price for either device.
The S1 boasts a 9.4-inch screen, as well as both front- and rear-facing cameras. Sony has dubbed the S1 its "rich media" tablet, as it is focused on its Qriocitymedia service, and it will sport an infrared sensor that will enable it to act as a remote control for other Sony gear like televisions.
The S2 will have two screens.
The second tablet Sony announced today is the dual-screen S2, which had been rumored since January. The device sports two 5.5-inch, 1,024 x 480 pixel displays, which will allow users a range of possibilities, including video viewing on one screen and manipulating buttons on the other. Additionally, for gaming, the top screen will display the title and the bottom will offer touch-sensitive controls.
