    I was just pondering how can Google get revenue by providing us a free of charge exploring system. We spend practically nothing and the google permits us to search free. How does it work??
    Thank you

  2. I just acquired a motorola cliq and have noticed articles or blog posts all over advertising the new update to google maps permitting navigation but when i go to google cellular it states to entry the android industry by means of my cellphone and down load the most recent google maps but when i do that google maps does not seem in the market. Is this becuase i am not on the Droid or is there some other difficulty that is not enabling me to discover this new update?

    Hi,

    I have recently launched a new website. I just want to know how long does it take for Google to recognize backlinks to my site. I am currently generating backlinks by posting on different forums, blog commenting and directory submission. It has been a week now but still there are 0 backlinks to my site according to Google.

    Yahoo is relatively quicker than Google in recognizing backlinks. Does anyone have any idea how long does it take for Google to recognize backlinks to my website?

  7. I keep reading in newspapers and online that a lot of Android handsets are getting hacked/hijacked. I have a HTC Wildfire which runs on Android, but I will be getting my new phone in a few months time, and I am wanting to get possibly the Sony Xperia S.
    But that runs on Android. But are they safe?

  8. I recently tried googling my full name and I saw my picture.
    It was a photo I posted on facebook.
    I want to remove this photof rom google.. How do i do that?
    By the way, i removed the picture from facebook, but it still apears in google images..
    And why out of all the pictures of my on facebook, google chose that particular one to have in their image results?

  9. I have some java experience from university and would like to become an android developer. Can someone, in simple terms, please explain what an intent is in android development. I just dont understand, possibly some example may clear things up.

    Thanks everyone.

  10. My Google toolbar disappeared and I have to download it evertime I go online. My Yahoo toolbar always opens so I would like to import my bookmarks into Yahoo favorites. I have tried all the tips on the Google help area to make the toolbar reappear and none of them work. I am using Comcast Cable as my internet provider if that makes a difference.

  11. i want to download android apps to my pc from android market for my android device. any possibility? i don’t want to download using my android device.

  12. I have it connected via USB right now, however when I go to “My Computer” it does not show the device. It may be that my computer is too slow? I am not sure. I have windows XP. It took a few minutes to recognize my iphone, but it has been about 10 minutes and it still doesnt recognize the android. Also, will it let me just transfer my itunes music to my android, or will that not work?

  13. I’ve seen people run the android os on their iphones, but they require an iphone 2 or 3g. Is there a way to install on it an iphone 4?
    not the iphone 2, but the original iphone. and i’ve seen 2.2 videos on engadget and other sites. but i was wondering if there was an earlier version that’s more stable.

    I’m planning to buy an Android phone but my budget limits me to phones with 240×320 resolutions. Now, I’m a bit hesitant to buy such phone because I think that it has the most limited number of apps and games available. Yet, I really want to buy an Android as soon as possible.

  15. I have bought Sony Xperia X10. Whenever i try to download and install any application through my mobile(Android market), it asks me to enter the account details. After entering the gmail account details, I receive a reply that the account is not associated with the Android phone. Is there any solution for this problem? I need to install many applications but unfortunately not able to do. If any one has solution to this problem then please do help me by providing it.
