I like Android applications that link to other Android applications. Or Android applications on the Android market, that lead to random websites on the internet, that detect you have an Android device, and then recommend both other Android specific websites and Android specific applications. From a random website on the internet you can link to a market listing, to increase market download count, comments, etc. or you can link to a random hosted APK. That's especially good for Beta's, you can require a person to fill out a bunch of forms then link them straight to a private APK, for Beta purposes. But Android apps that advertise other Android apps, are awesome. Better still are free Android games that advertise other free Android applications. You want to keep the advertisements unobtrusive, and serve them at the right time. I love it when a game I'm playing links back to a market listing, or anything that helps me find more similar applications. -My 2 cents, -MK -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
