Android Dose

In case you didn’t know or hear AndroidGuys Thursday Night Podcast is looking for an Intern and last night during the podcast there was an “Interview” (used in the loosest sense of the term) for each possible intern. Well I was one of them (#2 Aaron Buckner) and I had a great time! Stericson stumped me on the first ROM creator but what can I say? I am relatively new to Android (Though not compared to a couple of the other hopefuls). I think I was doing great until Bruce came along and stole my faithful followers (ok they were faithful for like 10mins but they were still faithful!) regardless I just wanted to put it out there in a public forum that I had a great time and I wish everyone luck!

While I still dig the idea of being Scotty’s little do boy I think we can almost call it in Bruce’s favor but I invite everyone that still hasn’t voted to download the andoidguys app from the market and vote for me! Regardless of who wins and becomes the Intern for AndroidGuys Thursday Night Podcast you will most likely find me hanging out in the chatroom listening live and enjoying the great show they put on for the community! I encourage everyone to listen in and enjoy the fun, even if you can’t listen live please download it or listen from the web during the week its a great show hilarity ensues, jokes are told (tho some #trevorfail) also hop on twitter keep an eye out for the #AGTN hashtag Follow @scottyabrown @androidguys and the rest of the AndroidGuys crew, I almost forgot @androidswag!
