EdiAUG - Honor -Skyscanner Events

What a week! As well as with my day job, this week I was busy helping facilitate the Edinburgh Android User Group - Honor - Skyscanner events.

The events were hosted by Skyscanner in their Edinburgh and Glasgow offices (one on Tuesday and one on Wednesday) and featured a short introductory talk from Skyscanner and a talk from Wilkin Lee of Honor about Honor and Huawei.

Not only were the talks interesting (even if I do say so myself), but Wilkin used a familiar competition format and gave away a Honor Holly at each of the events.

I had a great time and have delayed new device purchases until the Honor 6+ is out at the beginning of May. The camera, especially in low light conditions, blew me away and the device overall is lovely.

Interested in engaging with me and EdiAUG for an Android/mobile related event? Ping me on Google Plus.

Thanks to Skyscanner for support and hosting, and thanks to Wilkin and James of Honor for travelling to Scotland for the events.

March Of The Droids 2015

Last weekend was March Of The Droids 2015. I attended the event representing Skyscanner, had a great time and met many awesome similarly minded Android enthusiasts.

Thanks to everyone who attended, including Huawei with Honor, HTC and ASUS.

Another March Of The Droids is over, may the suspense and trepidation before the announcement of the 2016 event be great!

EdiAUG Is Back!

I am pleased to officially announce that the Edinburgh Android User Group is back and has organised a meetup for next week. Head over to the official EdiAUG Blog for more info about the event being held at Skyscanner HQ.

As usual, feel free to leave a comment below or contact me on Google Plus if you would like more info on the event.

Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) To Be Shown Off On February 2nd!

That's right! Google are holding an event in Mountain View, California on Wednesday 2nd February 2011!

The event will also be streamed live on http://www.youtube.com/android so those of us on the other side of the world will be able to follow the event.

I'm looking forward to this event because as well as finding out about Android 3.0 there may be more information on Android 2.4 (for smartphones rather than for tablets).

I'll blog about the event soon after the live stream finishes. Enjoy the wait and the excitement until then!
