If your intent is to get updates independent of the current activity -
then yes, use a service (with a worker thread to do the actual checks).

That's what I was thinking. Would this best be done from a background
service running on the phone or would I use a different structure?

I'd just send a simple HTTP Get Request periodically and process the

I want to make a background process/service which will listen for
updates from a web server and then notify the user of those updates.
I've done some research into several approaches but can't decide which
one is simplest/best.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
KG
