No code 200 returned in LogCat but an exception caught...

cannot get a 200 responseCode but in looking through LogCat i see an "Exception caught: java.net.MalformedURLException: Protocol not found: http//blog.teamtreehouse.com/api/get_recent_summary/?count=20" my code seems to be identical to the example, is there some other reason i may be getting this exception? i've had lots of bugs from different versions of eclipse etc...

The error means the url that you are using is not correct. Try this: http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/api/get_recent_summary/?count=20 You forgot to add : after http
