10 exciting things about Android
Despite my excitement over the build-up, the actual launch of the HTC/T-Mobile/Google Android/G1 phone was a bit of a so-what for me. But I came across this little item: 10 members of the Android team each show one thing they like about the new system. 10 videos of 25 seconds each. And suddenly I can see quite a lot there that’s really interesting, and better than the iPhone. Including (along the way) one-week-view in the calendar (the iPhone does one day one month), great shortcuts in the browser, and — they had to, didn’t they — copy & paste.
Another impressive thing is YouTube’s feature to play a series of videos in sequence. Another neat little trick from, er, Google.
