Cool Google Maps icons

I came across these today. It's a set of more that 700 icons for using as markers in your google maps. I must say they look pretty neat and will definitely help personalize one's maps. I will surely use them in my next google maps project. There are also free :)

Beginning android development

I have decided to start playing with android, maybe develop apps or small games. But before that, it's study time :)

I also found a book which should also prove useful.

I also looked for frameworks that would ease app development, and discovered Corona. It doesn't seems hard to get used to and there are loads of tuttorials out there to help you, both on their site, or on others.
