Welcome back to another week of the Android Police podcast. This is our second episode, and there are a lot of voices you'll be hearing, so let's figure out who's who. This week on the show, our guests include (aside from regular hosts Matt, Bob, and David):

  • Artem Russakovskii (Founder of Android Police)
  • Eric Ravenscraft
  • Cameron Summerson

If you're having a hard time telling who is speaking, don't worry - we're working on it (thanks to all those who noted this on the first episode).

This week, we're tackling a lot of topics, but some of the big ones are:

No, you didn't miss the memo - Android Police has been working, in secret (well, kind of secret), for nearly 2 months to bring you our first-ever podcast series. And we're calling it... The Android Police Podcast. Clever, I know. We've been diligently crafting it to make sure we get this right, and our first release episode is now ready for your listening pleasure (at least we hope it's pleasurable).

Seeing as this is our very first episode, we're especially interested in your feedback. All of it. I mean down to the nitty-gritty-borderline-OCD level. We want to hear the full spectrum - good, bad, and ugly.

The Guardian is one of the most popular daily newspapers printed in Britain and its web portal, Guardian.co.uk, is also a leading online newspaper, containing nearly all the articles of its parent as well as significant original content. Unlike other web portals of printed publications such as the New York Times and the Economist, all the articles on Guardian.co.uk are freely accessible. To continue ensuring it remains the leading publication in all formats, Guardian has launched an Android app delivering all the latest content from Guardian.co.uk to Android phones and tablets.

The app is very similar to the Economist and New York Times Android apps, with plenty of content culled from various sources as well as images, videos and audio extracts.

It's no secret that we're big fans of the BeyondPod podcast manager here at Android Police. It is easily the best, most full featured podcatcher in the market, providing many features that the competition can't touch. The BeyondPod team has been working on a Honeycomb version of their famous podcatcher for some time now, and today it shed its beta skin and hit the Market in official form.
