MercadoLibre

This video shows a small proof of concept about consuming MercadoLibre's REST API in a mobile environment (Android Gingerbread).

The timeline for this experiment was:

1 PM: got started downloading Android SDK and Eclipse plugins, succesfully created a Virtuall Android Device.

2PM: I've started cooking (food, not code).

4 PM: hello world running,learned how to do basic layout, rest calls, show toast messages, add activities, listviews and communicate with browser via intents

8 PM: video shoot is done.

Want to try this by yourself?

Android SDK: http://developer.android.com/sdk/

MercadoLibre REST Search API (Arg): https://api.mercadolibre.com/sites/MLA/search?q=ipod

Cheers,
