The question is not "can you express what it does" in 325 characters - of course you can, any imbecile could do that with 25 characters if they had to. No, the question is "can you convey to the user how awesome your app is, what it's fully capable of, and how it stands out from the competition" in 325 characters - and I don't think you can for anything but the simplest app. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
