I'm not trying to use HTTP, the "www.google.com" was just a URL I knew would be able to respond. Turns out that if I replace the "www.google.com" with it's IP "74.125.53.105" then it works. Don't know why.
I would like to get 2 android simulators talking so I can test 2 way communications with data. I haven't found out how to get 2 simulators up yet either.
