Treehouse TeacherLatest Android stage "Adapting Data for Display in a List" is now live!
Hello Android developers! My latest stage in the Build a Blog Reader App project is live!
Now that we've connected to the Treehouse Blog and retrieved data in JSON format, let's take a look at how to adapt that data for display in our ListView. We'll first adapt titles using an ArrayAdapter, we'll add some code to manage the user interface while our web request is running, add an AlertDialog in case of errors, and then we'll add author information using a more complex adapter called SimpleAdapter.
Let me know if you have any questions, problems, or feedback. Happy coding!

Treehouse Teacher@Gary, Amit and I want to extend the Blog Reader app as a new project that covers some more advanced material like using 3rd party libraries to make things easier and add functionality (like pull-to-refresh, for example). We'll post details on the roadmap once the current Blog Reader app is finished.
