Thank you for the link, Les!<br />
I will take a look and try creating some apps when I get access to the App Inventor. (Registered already but still waiting for an email from Google...)<br />

Meanwhile, I found this Sharon Machlis's article on ComputerWorld interesting.<br />

No doubt App Inventor will spawn a lot of "silly," less-than-useful apps as well as some with broader value. But you know what? Giving people the power to create their own silly apps is another major step in cementing both the usefulness of a smartphone in general and platform loyalty in particular. App Inventor for Android is one of the smartest things Google could have done in its battle with Apple for the hearts and minds of smartphone power users.

Yes - they've been using it to teach lots of things. If you look at <a href="http://sites.google.com/site/appinventorhelp/" target="_blank">http://sites.google.com/site/appinventorhelp/</a> you can see some of the historical stuff, there's also a site on code.google.com that's got lots of examples. (sorry can't find the link).

Hi Les,<br />
Ohh, I just got to know about it today and was kind of suprised that Google was creating it so silently... Thank you for the info.<br />
Regarding the impact to the entire android market, I guess it will not be so significant for some time until it gets popularity. But I think it is worth take a close look and see what can be done with this tool.<br />
By the way, it looks great for education purpose, doesn't it?
