Use [this.] getSharedPreferences(String name, int mode) from any of your
components, provided that you use the same "name" parameter.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#getSharedPreferences(java.lang.String,
int)
Retrieve and hold the contents of the preferences file 'name',
returning a SharedPreferences through which you can retrieve and
modify its values. *Only one instance of the SharedPreferences object
is returned to any callers for the same name, meaning they will see
each other's edits as soon as they are made.*
Activity.getPreferences (int mode) just calls the above method with the
activity's class name, making those prefs private to that particular
activity class.

What are the differences between any of these calls -
all called from within my Activity sub-class instance.
getApplicationContext()
getBaseContext()
this
I need to get the context primarily for prefs for my apps - there
are multiple Activities but i'd like to reference the same
common prefs for my app.
