Won a JavaRanch contest - book "Unlocking Android"
I was greeted by good news in my inbox this morning.
I won a JavaRanch contest and the award is a book on Android development - Unlocking Android. :-)
The prerequisite for taking part in the contest were to contribute to Android forum, which I did. I’m guessing they did not use a completely randomized system since I got selected after writing (only) 3 or 4 posts, but rather...
