What do you like the most on Android? Is it the great design, the great and active community, the amount of well created open source apps?

It doesn't matter! It seems like you love Android!

Because I'm myself developer for Android too (next too my student activities) I thought I want to contribute something to the community of Android entusiasts.

Today I want to present appydroid, the first open sourced online news magazine about Android apps.

What does Open Source in this context mean?

Open Source means Open Source:

• Everyone should be able to add new content to appydroid
