Announcements

Thanks --- and how to return loaner phones

Well, I really enjoyed the presentations yesterday! Neat stuff. Sorry we ran late. I was having too much fun listening and didn't want to cut anyone off.

If you have an Android phone on loan please return it. If I am around, to me in 32-D434, and if not, to my assistant, Ellie Zucker 32-D464 (but please don't just leave it on her desk, contact her first by email at <eliaranov@csail.mit.edu> to make sure she is around when you show up). Thanks.

Also, if you have not yet done the course evaluation, please do it -- for a small experimental course it is particularly important to get high percentage participation.

Project Progress

On Tuesday, let's have a review of progress on your projects. Rather than something very formal, be prepared to describe where you are on your project and what potential problems you have discovered. Also, if you have found some interesting things about the Android API that we didn't discuss in class, please take this opportunity to share that with the rest of us.
