25 Years Ago : The Shuttle Challenger Disaster

Today marks the 25th Anniversary of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster back in 1986.

I remember it being special due to school teacher Christa McAuliffe being part of the crew and I think this might have been the first tragedy I was alive for or at least remember at an early age.

Today we honor those lost and I take a moment to thank all who put there lives on the line to protect us or for those who risk their lives to better and advance us as human beings.

My Android Twitter List

One thing I love doing is organizing people I follow on Twitter into lists that help me follow stuff easier and by subject.

One subject that I follow more now (especially since getting my EVO) is Android and I decided you know what I should start a list.

Wanna join in the fun? Have a twitter account you follow to get you Android news? Join the list and leave a comment here on the post with who you follow for your Android news and I will look into adding them.
