WomenWithDroids Must-Have Apps

Participating contributors were: Ellie, CraftLass, Liz, Deb, Taylor, and myself. You can read more about us on our About page (I will update it with our recently-added contributors soon!) and see recommendations from each of us...

Tweet summaries for RSS followers?

Those of you who follow WomenWithDroids via RSS feed, but not on Twitter, you’re missing out on a lot of the “news” items we Re-Tweet from other Android blogs (so many of them duplicate one another’s posts, it’s not worth it for us to write new articles for stuff every other blog has already covered, so we just RT it). So, I have a question for you. Do you want me to start doing weekly or bi-weekly tweet summaries here so you don’t miss out? Another option...
