While I still intend on writing a longer feature-length post chronicling my adventures in Android apps, here is a quick listing of some of the blogs I’ve been reading since I jumped on the Android bandwagon.
Android Central – Part of The Smartphone Experts network, the same folks who run CrackBerry.com, which was one of my favorite Blackberry blogs, and The iPhone Blog. Like several of these blogs, Android Central also runs a store with accessories.
AndroidSPIN – AndroidSPIN appeals to the slightly more technical user, with more coverage of the latest unofficial Android ROMs.
Android and Me - This blog easily wins the Android blog beauty contest, both for its main site and its mobile site. In addition to news, they seem to have a good proportion of original content, such as app reviews and a great tutorial on making your WordPress blog more iPhone and Android friendly (something I hope to do soon!)
Droid Life – This is definitely the oddball of my list. It’s much less polished than the rest, and focuses exclusively on the Motorola Droid. Despite it being a little less robust than the larger sites, this one has lots of excellent Droid-specific content like the Android 2.1 apps (with multi-touch) that have been ported to the Droid. It can get a bit technical at times, with information on “rooting” and so on, but still a useful site to have in my RSS reader.
I also keep an eye on Android-related posts at Lifehacker (one of my favorite blogs in general) and occasionally browse the Android-tagged posts on Engadget.
Any other Android users out there have favorite blogs (or other Android sites) you frequent? Any you’ve found completely useless? I’d love to hear about them in the comments.
