I don't know how to watch it LIVE, but Versus.com usually has the recap videos after the stage is over with.
Offtopic...who are you going for? The big boys start to unleash hell tomorrow

If you are in uk.
If it is on freeview.
m.tvcatchup.com
Streams freeview channels to your phone, live.

i watch it recorded on versus every night. i have always played sports but never much of a watcher and never ridden a bike competitivy but i have been addictived to the tour for several years. amazing what these men go through and then get back on the bike. it also helps that it is beaufiful scenery, in hd, and the commentators on versus are excellent. they know the race, the sprt, the personalities, and they gave information about all the sourrounding areas.
of coursr i want lance to win and cannot wait to see if he gains some time today. my money would be on alberto contador. he just looks so strong. don't think andy schlek has the heart. cadel evans is positioned well and could win if alberto has a mishap. and chavanel looks good on the sprints and the low foothills. waitingto see what he does today. just hope lance has some of his teammates with him durung the hard climbs. he was all by himself yesterday in the foothills. not a good sign.

...it was painful to watch the stage today

[APP] Zombie Survival Handbook

My second foray into appmaking is a Zombie Survival Handbook, I think I did a rather good job but advice is always good to have. Is there any sort of thing you believe I should add into this type of app? I go into basic weaponry + defense situations and use the army survival guide to supplement survival info on the run. Also have a section on zombie myths and the modern zombie (its evolution over the last 100 years).
Any suggestions are welcome
omgggg I am a huge zombie fan. I got every romero dead movie, read all the current the walking dead comics, own various other zombie movies, read survival guide and wwz and currently the rising. I LOVE ZOMBIES!!! ok sorry for the stupid rant but back on topic. I would make a section on recommendations of movies and comics/books. Fast and slow zombies differences. Romero and Russo/O'Bannon zombies differences. Scenarios. Voodoo zombies. transportation.
Do it! Sounds like a fun app
I released 1.0 last night after about a month of working in it after work and on weekends.
I have a world/cultural historical overview but you're right, it would make sense to do a review for modern day movies, especially foreign ones.
Some of my favorites offhand:
The original REC (quarantine)- was amazing.
FIDO was very well done.
Dance of the dead was low budget but fun to watch.
and I've heard good things about ' Dead Set' but haven't seen it yet- 6 episode 'what if' in which the big brother house is assaulted by zombies. (They're cut off from the world so don't realize z-day is here)
Thanks for the insight!
Very informative app! Now I know what to do when there is no more room in Hell!

yea I enjoyed rec more then quarantine, waiting for rec 2 to be english dubbed and my views on fido and dance of the dead are the same as yours. I heard of dead set and it seemed interesting but never got around to watching it. You should definitely read The Walking Dead comics if you haven't there's currently 74 issues and it took me like 3 days to read them but it was awesome man and they're making it into a tv show too soon. Finally another android & zombie fan cool man. Ima check the app out now. Got a twitter so i can follow?
Never actively update twitter outside of being at zombie cons
Should have a website up whenever my android partner-in-crime stops being lazy >_<
Thanks for the input =D
Some formatting issues will be fixed, and one person claimed broken links but I wasn't able to find any and checked it fairly thoroughly multiple times
Created a section for must see zombie films by request, top 19 fan favorites are on there.
Crap sorry I missed this I'm gonna go download it now! If you love zombies you should gotta watch high school of the dead its anime but it's good!
Not forgetting Shaun of the Dead! Best Rom Zom Com of all time lol
This is an app that needs to be out there because of principle ;-p

News to baseball fans

Got this info on this website.
http://androidfeens.com/?p=3480
As a HUGE Phillies fan, you can tell I’m anxious about MLB At Bat 2011 and what it will bring to table. I was trying to get a hold of MLB.tv via Twitter and was referred to email the MLB mobile team. I asked if there were any plans to integrate live streaming video (MLB.tv) to their 2011 MLB At Bat Android app. The response I received was rather optimistic, yet rather vague.
————————————————————————————————————
Response Via Email (XXXXXX XXXXXXX) – 01/31/2011 02:19 PM
Dear Doug:
Thank you for your inquiry.
We are now offering live streaming of the games on select Android phones. We do not have much information expect the live games on the select devices. We will have more information as the season draws closer. Here is a list of supported Android phones that support the live games.
Droid
Droid 2
Droid X
HTC Evo
Samsung Epic
If you have any further questions please feel free to calkl our mobile department at 1-866-306-5311.
Sincerely,
MLB.com Customer Support
————————
What through me for a loop is the the Incredible is not listed nor are a host of other newer Android phones. One plus is that that the email mentioned that they don’t have any information except for the listed devices and more will be come available as the season nears. Lets keep our fingers crossed MLB fans!
Who else is eagerly waiting for opening day? Let’s hope MLB At Bat 2011 allows all of us to be there.
Reference: mlb.com
FYI Im Cardinals fan
Still can't watch local games I am guessing. Still a deal breaker for me.
I was hoping they would do that, the streaming during the World Series worked pretty well. As for local games, I wouldn't be surprised if someone finds a way around it. When I'm on 3G my phone says I'm two time zones away anyway most of the time.
You should check out Slingplayer. I never miss a Yanks game now that I have it, can set my dvr too.
that would suck if it only supported a few devices....that would be "fragmentation" that actually would piss me off since it has nothing to do with the OS etc.
If my Nexus S can't play MLB.tv and Netflix doesnt release an app soon....
This is a early statement. I'm baseball fan just let you guys know a head of time.

[APP]BMX Mobile Moto Control

apparently 0 BMX'ers here, lol, either way, i created another simple BMX related app. Mobile Moto Control will record your moto number and gates for the race day. Moto's are the race you're in, gates are the lanes you start from in each race. It's just a way to record it, then you can quickly check your moto and gates in the pit before heading up to staging.
used app inventor to create it, so it's not a very complex app.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18137302/MobileMotoControl.apk
even if you don't race BMX (which i don't think there's anyone else here that does, lol), check it out. for sampling, motos can be any number from 1-300. gates can be any number from 1-10. you race the same moto (moto number) 3 times, each time from a different gate.
here's a video sample of this app and my gearcalc app

always funny to look back at the old skool bmx stuff.
Ill check out the vid when i get home. Raced in so cal, lake perris, coal canyon, been to a bunch of nationals and gold cups. I got some vhs-c i need an adaptor for.
WOW. Just the apk alone brings back memories of Greg Hill, Stu Thompson, Eric Roupe, Dave Mira, Pistol Pete, ect. Used to race in the 80's as well in Illinois. Had a Redline 500a. Also ran in the ABA circuit. To bad we didn't have smart phones back then, could have used this apk many times. Since then all the local tracks have closed up. It's a shame because it kept alot of kids occupied. Kudoos on the apk.

i'm actually changing it so you can track 5 people (since it's me and my 3 kids). so that would work for multi-class race days as well.
i forget who it was that remade helltrack, but i think it's in mass. i can't completely remember, i saw it a few years ago on the vintagebmx forums.

[Game] Parallel Kingdom [MMORG] 1,000,000+ players [FREE]

Say Hello to a new World.
There are few games on mobile that are insanely addictive. Parallel Kingdom AOT, is by far the most intriguing one I have come across. PK comes across as a MMORG, which uses the GPS on your phone to place you in your actual location in game.
The game starts you off as an explorer beginning his/her journey. As you continue your adventure, you level up, get upgraded weapons and armor, and slay monsters day in day out. You constantly play alongside other players, from throughout the world, teaming with them to form kingdoms, cities and alliances.
Parallel Kingdom uses Google Maps as the background, and makes use of GPS satellites to place you in your real life location. New updates including the satellite map feature lead to you actually getting the sense that you are enjoying a high seas adventure with your mates, or leading an expedition through the Sahara desert, or struggling through the Amazon forest, slaying any monsters that come you way.
The great thing about PK is that you continue in the same place you leave. So you don’t have to worry about getting back to where you log off. Perblue devs have managed to create an amazing game through almost a 3-year period.
PK is available on both Android and iOS.The game has reached the 1,000,000 player mark and is spreading fast. The game is a nice change from Angry Birds, and maybe a step away from it and possibly all other games. Don't blame me if you end up becoming a PK addict.

Hello new world......you got WoW por la me?
Seriously try this, this is an epic game. Not the 3-d graphics etc you would normally want from a mobile RPG. However, this is really an exceptional game, and it runs very smoothly, plus its easy to adapt to and very hard to get away from it.
Thanks for the tip, gonna have to try this out now!
Bump, people message me in game, my name's 'democrats', il try to help you out.
hey... Helloooo new world
seem interesting

no thanks.
I believe you're overreacting.
The developers likely use SMS for the in-game chat. Thus why the permission is needed.
looks awesome

The game uses food as a currency. Food can be bought with real cash, dollars pounds etc. One of the payment methods which can be used is Zong. Zong uses messages to get u food, I am not sure about the entire procedure but thats the basics. If you wish to buy food you are directed to a message which if you send gets you the amount of food you want to buy.
This was brought up on the PK forums as well.
hey... Helloooo new world
I sent out messages to all the people who started playing, just send me a if you need any help at all.
Front page?
This game has been out for years, you advertise it on the forum along with your referral code and it gets on the front page? Did you make the game?

I am not one of the devs. However, people at XDA looking for intuitive, exciting, and enjoyable content, and PK, is that. So it was'nt a surprise that this ended up on the front page.
It was maybe lost on the XDA forums, because when I checked for other threads about PK, there were a couple from two years ago.
This is a brilliant game and it deserves to be highlighted on the front page regardless of the day it was launched.

DB - Its people like you that are making XDA what it is now, D-Bags like you....
As far as OP goes, I love this game been playing for a few months too......It's very addicting and constant changes and improvements to gameplay and strategy. The Devs are great at listening to the users and giving them what they want. One of the best parts about this game is it's multi-platform so you are playing with IPhone players as well so the vast amount of people playing is ridiculousness. I got the same name on the game as here so look me up.

LOL! D-Bags made XDA the efficent dev forum we know and love? And I'm one of those d-bags? Oh, I feel special.
As for pk, I played it about 2 years ago, lasted an entire month and a half with me playing seldomly. I'm no longer an active player, but it was a great time waster when there's nothing else to do.
Thats pretty neat
interesting...

Two years ago this game was more or like in its initial stages, but now it's been under developed for quite some time and has improved a lot.
I suggest that you give it another shot, you might get hooked on to it now.

If you haven't bought your Haloween candy yet....

Well done Google! You proved that you have added another skill to your inventory!
A world class prankster!
The commercials and the Kit Kat candy bars with cryptic clues and $5 play store credits was pure genius, like I have said before. A wonderful marketing machine for both Nestle and Google, and paved the way for advertising your products on popular consumer food items in the future.
Bravo, bravo!
PS - you also turned me into the Halloween scrooge, as there will be no child who will receive a Kit Kat or Nestle candy product from me tonight as I will go out of my way to avoid these products today on my $100 annual candy purchase - I live in a soccer mom neighborhood where kids swarm like locusts as the sun goes down. Just my own little personal trick or treat favor in return - if everyone on XDA did the same around the world it would make a nice dent in those holiday profits, and that would be wonderful news to read. But alas, people are fickle and will awake tomorrow morning like the same excited 'hungry dog' with 'lapping tongue' hitting F5 on the source page until they finally wear off the letters, and yet no update will come until mid November because any later than that and you risk parents and shoppers buying another type of phone for the holidays, and that's not going to be allowed to happen because that's part of your arterial blood supply.
Happy Haloween my XDA brothers and sisters! And for once Nestle can 'eat me' not the other way around! lol.
