Things We Missed, You Shouldn’t [Feb. 1st]

The folks at Linux are training people how to develop for Android, yet another carrier gerts the LG Optimus M, and Mathias Duarte – whom I now like to refer to as “the god of all things Honey” – has graced our PC displays with a rather entertaining interview. With all of these things we couldn’t exactly get to on this first day in February, you shouldn’t have to miss out. Just take a gander at the links on each item for more.
