The new software "Google Application Inventor" for Android is so easy, even kids can use it!

Well that's because the programming language software was built with kids in mind.

The interface uses objects and graphics that remind me of Lego building blocks and jigsaw puzzle pieces, it has some advanced capabilities to play around with. I've finished the 2 tutorial applications that Google had prepared to familiarize myself with the basics.

So far it's fun, and very intuitive. I like the way code is represented visually and I believe all types of users will be able to make their own Android Apps when it is fully released to the general public.


I will be posting updates as I continue my programming journey.

By using sensors to tune into electric signals produced by the brain, it can detect player thoughts, feelings and expressions and it can connect wirelessly to most computers.

How would you like to be able to just use your thought to control something, it could be a feeling or an emotion that would signal a device to to dynamically create different colors, shapes, music, sounds, and art.

Real life applications for this technology include assisting disabled patients to be able to controlling elec…
