Good Morning everyone. Thanks for coming to this session. I am Israel Ferrer founder of bubiloop, the social network for apps recommendation, and and.roid.es, the biggest android community in Spain. I've been learning android for two years and nowadays I am working full time in bubiloop and this is some work I made and some parties.
First of all, I want to ask you some questions. ¿How many people in this room has and android phone?¿How many of this have a cool new android phone like nexus one or similar? P: Wow incredible, I am impress. N: cool, not bad. You have to improve that! Everyone that has this cool nexus one should know the power handset full of services out of the box. Nowadays this location-based apps are popular because smart phones like Android ones come with GPS, WIFI, 3G, Location based on network, html 5 compliant browser and thanks to Android open environment as developer you can use all that services and content in the phone with no limits to innovate. I suppose that everyone knows foursquare. Foursquare is a location-base social network you are in some place, you check in that place and you win badges and mayor ships. I am going to show you how to make foursquare for Android. Well with no places content but Foursquare basically uses maps and location. So In this session I am going to show you one of the powerful things of Android the integration of Google maps and Location in applications.
So Let's Start, I guess most of people in this room has been working with eclipse and android sdk because for this session I am not going to talk about Android fundamentals so everything you need to start in Android, tutorials, samples, api reference is in developer.android.com.
First I am going to show you how to integrate Google Maps on your Application, then I’ll continue with Location on Android and Finally I will give you the link with the code and you can ask me questions about this session

Imagine that your user has disable the GPS location and you use the gps as provider, you ll get a beauty force close so the best practices is use a criteria to get the best provider for every moment.
