New Android Workshop available!

Hey Android students! My latest Android workshop is now available: Using Parse.com as the Backend for an Android App. Parts of it are a little advanced compared to what we've covered in the projects so far, but I'm happy to answer any questions!

The fastest and easiest way to get an Internet-based app off the ground is to use a backend-as-a-service like that offered at Parse.com. Whether you are prototyping, coding at a hackathon, or launching, Parse.com offers easy and efficient solutions regarding cloud storage, user management, push notifications, and more! In this we will learn how to sign up for a free account with Parse and start using it to build a simple social bookmarking app. The app allows users to sign up, log in, add and delete friends, and post links with notes, all utilizing Parse.com's dynamic cloud storage features.

I hope you enjoy it and find it helpful. I love using Parse for this kind of stuff and highly recommend it.
