Hello all, I haven’t posted in a while but I’m back and will be presenting a series of Screen Casts with “how to’s” and tutorials regarding development on using the Google App Inventor. In Volume 1 I will be explaining how to install the Android SDK and set up an emulator so you won’t need an actual Android Handset to test your created applications. I will be going over the basics which will result in a fully functional Twitter client. If you would like to follow along, I have organized a list of links for the necessary files to complete this task.

Next up is Volume 2: Logging in to your Twitter client and sending a tweet.

This is just the beginning, hopefully as time goes on I will provide you with helpful tips and tricks within the Google App Inventor. In the comments below, please let us know what you think of the video and leave your suggestions on what you would like to see in the future.
