I am so glad that Winamp put out an Android client. I used Winamp for years in the late 90's, so why not give it a try on my Android phone? Scan the barcode above on your phone to get started.

I use Evernote to keep all of my notes and photos of important pieces of paper like receipts, prescriptions, whiteboards, etc. Droid Scan lets you take even better scans of physical things and keep them in your Evernote notebook.
Google’s Do-It-Yourself App Creation Software
via nytimes.com
The New York Times did an excellent summary of Google's new App Creator for Android. Why wait for someone to build an app for your phone when you can just build it yourself. Easily.
This is a great example of why my next phone will be an Android phone and not an Apple phone. I want a phone that lets me do what I want with it, not what Apple engineers let me do with it.
I feel like I'm becoming an Android fanboy, but this demo of how to use your Android cell phone for Internet access for your laptop is awesome. So simple, how it should be. Now, your phone company might try to block that feature, but you can always unlock it if you're so interested. Just knowing that it exists and works is just amazing. Nice work on this one, Google.

doubleTwist is a good-looking software package that can manage your media (music, photos, video, podcasts) so that it can be accessed by your mobile device (Android, Palm, BlackBerry, etc). If someone wants the media skills of an iPod with the flexibility of an open platform, this might be the killer app.
As I look to transition from my BlackBerry to likely an Android-based phone, this might be just what I need.

I use a BlackBerry Bold now (from AT&T) and planned to switch to an iPhone next, but am thinking more and more about an Android-based phone. I'm always looking to tweak my phone, push it to the limits, and a closed OS like iPhone just doesn't allow for it. Unless "there's an app for that," I'm out of luck.
I was starting to get used to the idea of not carrying a phone and an iPod around, but I think I can live with a phone if it does everything I need it to do. I am going to have to assume all the vendors/software packages I use (Google, Outlook, Remember the Milk, Evernote, BaseCampHQ, etc) will all develop Android apps.
