Some people are updating manually, some playing with emulators.

Do you want to try Android 2.2 on your PC? Perhaps even try the sample applications and build them?
You can achieve this by these three: Eclipse + Android SDK + ADT Plugin For Eclipse
(There is also a native development tool, however it’s not for newbies)

  1. Download and extract Eclipse (Choose IDE for Java Developers package)
  2. Download, extract and run SDK Setup in Android SDK
  3. Install the Android Development Toolkit in Eclipse
  4. Point the ADK to the directory where you’re keeping your Android SDK files (the same place where you extracted the SDK)
  5. Run Eclipse, find menu item under Window -> Android SDK and AVK Manager
  6. Install available “Android 2.2 Revision 8″ into ADK. Check this screenshot (I already installed 8 so it doesn’t show):

  7. Create new virtual device with the Revision 8 support and some memory space (I used 512mb here)

  8. Finally, either start debugging sample applications or just run Android OS with the Start button in Virtual Devices panel.

But they say Google knows too much? Meh, who doesn’t.

Google launched Google Dashboard which aggregates all of a user’s Google service accounts into a single page thus providing simple access to privacy settings and stuff like that.

“You can see in one place a summary of the data in all the Google products you use,” said the search giant in a statement. “You can also manage this data and change settings easily and quickly.”

Management or not, it’s pretty scary.

I’ve completely forgotten about that blog post I made in 2004 when I was completely smashed.

What Google Knows About YOU

Google says I'm mind-boggingly handsome.

Ok, many of them are not really marvels; but there are excellent ones and their modelers certainly win 100 internets from me.
