Released two applications a few hours ago

    It was amazing that I released two applications of Android in just 72 hours, even an update was included after short uploading. 

    Take three weeks night and weekends affords the WhatsUp News has been completed v1.0(lately was v1.0.1).  The features including push and news-feeds parsing from faroo.com  lead the application to be unique among trees of apps in the play-store.  Of cos the backend is complete GAE by Golang and supports Google Cloud Message with topics-messages which has been announced a few days ago at Google dev-party I/O. With the new message feature I don't have to make a database local(on GAE side) to store all clients' push-tokens. Only to work is to define different topic-names and all clients only to register for these names, the rest jobs are on hang to Google, it is really cool that clients can save a lot net-traffics after submitting a push-tokens and unregister it.

   Notice: A version 1.0.2 will be submitted to store as soon as possible for a hot bug-fix associating to https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=175069

    A second application is marsTemp which provides a list of weather condition on mars. Of cos I can not get data from machine on it directly :). Ok, it is feeds from {MAAS} which converts data from NASA.  The application demos how to use Google's design library and to continue to load data functions when application-list moving to bottom.
