Probably the best references you will find is the API documentation for
"Google Local Search", unless you are planning on storing the
information on your own server.
Learn everything you can about Android HttpClient, and probably JSON..
you will need it extensively.
I have an app on the market called Bistro Bot, which does restaurant
reviews, and I am just in the final stages of a an Android called for
iHotTonight.com.. and I will be releasing a Web Service API for both
bistroblurb.com and iHotTonight.com within a couple of weeks. As part of
the documentation for the web services, I will be putting some
information up on the sites about developing with both Android and
iPhone. You could have a look at that if it's released early enough for
you... or let me know what your specific questions are ... I'm quite
interested to know what you need because I will need to take into
account developer questions for the documentation.
If you have a look at Bistro Bot, and want to know how any of it is
done, send me an email, and I'll be glad to share some information.
Good Luck :).
Brad.

Does anyone have any good references for designing and implementing an
idea I have for an android application.
My idea is for an application that stores information and reviews
about a specific location and presents this information to user.
I have gone through all the tutorials and have been reading up on
anything and everything about android. Now I am ready to challenge
myself with my first app.
Any suggestions on getting started would be greatly appreciated.
