Hello, I am just getting started in the world of android. I'm trying to understand which way to implement networking and a network queue in my application, there will be lots of comms for each activity including lots of thumbnail loading.
I have read the articles at http://ivolo.mit.edu/category/Android.aspx that outlined two different approaches. 1. Service based approach 2. application based approach I have also watched the IO talk about REST clients (sadly no source code was provided for this talk and the twitter source is not yet available) and looked at some of the open source applications that are available. The application approach seems very simple but from what I have seen no one is using it, I was hoping someone could outline the reasons or risks why it doesn't seem to be in use and what the benefits of the service based approach are.
