I was honored to be interviewed by Michael Desmond of Visual Studio Magazine regarding the release of Mono for Android 1.0.  The interview was done this morning and he already has it up on their site.

I needed to open some turn-by-turn directions in Android.  I did the following with Mono for Android, and this code worked:

                    String url = String.Format("http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr={0},{1}&daddr={2}", lat, lon, dAddr);

                    Intent intent = new Intent(Android.Content.Intent.ActionView, Android.Net.Uri.Parse(url));

                    StartActivity(intent);

 In this code, I needed to get some directions from the current latitude and longitude.

My article on iPhone & iPad Programming for .NET/C# Developers with MonoTouch has been published in the April, 2011 issue of DevPro Connections.  I hope you enjoy it.

I'll be speaking at Mobile Connections in Las Vegas, NV. I'll be speaking on:

Here is my presentation on HTML5 Applications from AnDevCon.

I'm speaking on Wednesday at the Code Project Mobile Virtual Conference on the subject of Android Programming for .NET/C# Developers with MonoDroid.  Check it out, I think its free.  Hopefully, you'll find this helpful in your mobile pursuits.

Been doing some work in MonoDroid and found that I needed to pass a user entered value from on Activity to another Activity in MonoDroid.  Here's how I did it.

As an FYI, my article on iPhone Programming with MonoTouch for DevConnections magazine has been submitted and edited.  I'm really excited about this.  It will coincide with my presentations at Mobile Connections in Las Vegas in April, 2011.  If you are coming to Mobile Connections, please look me up while you are there, I'd love to meet you and discuss mobile technologies.
