Really good android news reader/poster?
Friend in Michigan insists on using an android device instead of a
proper mac device for just about everything, including posting to usenet. I have a crappy bit of android usenet software on my tablet, but it is nothing I would recommend. Anyone know of a really top notch android news reader/poster who might post the name and url of its source here so I can pass it along? Thanks! |

I use it to make or receive occasional phone calls. I never use any of it's other functions or features including internet access. |

The first one on your list is the one I use occasionally on my android tablet and it is also the one my friend uses. One of my friend's complaints is that he has yet to discover a way to mark a bunch of new posts that don't interest him "read" so they disappear from his listing without having to go through them one at a time. The app sort of has a feature that does this, but it only works sporadically. The app I use on my iphone has the feature and it works properly, as does the full Thunderbird app I mostly use on my desktop computer. Feedly and several of the others seem more suited for bringing in RSS feeds and all sorts of media that go beyond the needs of simply being able to read and post to usenet. Still looking for recommendations for my friend. |

I imagine he's busily trying to figure it out. I'd be happy to help him if he has specific detailed questions he needs answered. After all, what are friends for, anyway? :-) He is an Apple guy AKA someone who does not what to know how their devices work or have any real control over them. I do find it ironic that in the famous ad, Apple was trying to make fun of "conformists" when the whole product line is based on conformity to the point that it has become a cult. |

Absurdity built on ignorance. My first two smartphones were android OS phones, and I ran both of them with advances from the ways that existed back then to bust out of the OS. When I was interested, I took formal programming language courses in Pascal and Modula-2. My current iPhone is almost always running the latest "jailbreak." I have no compelling interest in tinkering with my android tablet. I mostly use it as a device for reading books and for playing scrabble and chess. Just because I wasn't a "grunt" in the military doesn't mean I am ignorant of technology. These days, I learn what I have to learn to please myself. While you two boys were shoveling coal in the bowels of some obsolete ship somewhere, I was writing the user manuals for minicomputers being sold to the Peoples Republic of China to aid in weather forecasting for agricultural programs. Well, at least that was their ostensible purpose. |
