Let's do with Android

Now its the turn of the newer but the most popular platform these days. It started under the open Handset alliance where mobile companies (except Nokia) around the world joined hands to make the Mobile OS free of cost. Then Android came to existence.
Its features are:

• Open source(Completely designed in java .All OS thread are desiged in java)
• Easy and fast development (Google assures and provide full support for Android)
• All application developed are treated equally

Google recently conducted a competition or Android where people were asked to designed and they received an overwhelming response on this with thousands of application coming,only top 50 entries were selected.

• The list of top 50 entries are present on :

The Documentation of android is really great. You can Download the SDK and start working with it .There may be certain issues which you may face during installation which i will discuss in the next post.
Till then happy programming.

LETS GO:Start the basic

There are many operating systems on which we can work.
Some of them are as follows:

• symbian
• Android
  
• Maemo(open source linux based OS)
• Openmoko(its a platform for building new application)
• Windows CE(windows mobile platform used in many PDA's)

We are done with the basic OS part.Now moving on to the technical programming

The most widely used platforms are Symbian and Android(google popularised it).

For symbian you can code in many languages.

(i)In java(http://www.forum.nokia.com/main/resources/technologies/java/)

• j2me
• SNAP(for game developers)

(ii)symbia c/c++
(http://www.forum.nokia.com/main/resources/technologies/symbian/quickstart.html)

(iii)open c

(iv)python(The language with which i started http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.nokia.com/id/ee447e84-2851-471a-8387-3434345f2eb0/Python_for_S60.html)


(v)flashlite(http://www.forum.nokia.com/main/resources/technologies/flash/)

This is Symbian OS working explained and we will discuss android in the next one.
Till that visit all the links and decide which one you have to choose for your programming. :)

Starting mobile programming

This is my attempt to start working for mobile programmers .I think i can help the newbie with knowledge available to me.
Ok,lets start in this first blog i will start explaining how i started mobile programming. I was talking to my friend shubhendra some time back, he told me about the mobile programming .I read a lot about mobile programming i realised that it was need of the hour. It was like investing in future.Being a computer science student i liked it a lot ,wid 2 other friends i started it and it was really fun.We made a application named swashikar made for reliance ,result still awaited.
PPL keep reading will post more on more mobile programming soon.
