Adventuring into Android development

So I got a Dell Streak in October.  It's an awesome device that I never seem to put down or quit tinkering on.  I'm running a custom ROM called Streakdroid. I've been itching to get into Android development for fun and profit since I got this thing. I've done a lot of Java programming in the past so this shouldn't be too difficult.  I'm going to chronicle my journey on this blog in hopes that it might help someone out there figure out what they need to do.  I am hopeful that other developers will see what I've done and give me better ways to do things as I am only a beginner at this.

For my first project I am going to do an expense tracker.  Why an expense tracker?  I currently use Quicken to keep track of my personal finances and would like a way to track what I buy during the day so that I can bring it back to the computer to enter into quicken.  If I don't do it this way I generally forget what I've bought and then have to go look in my online banking system and put it back into Quicken that way.

Again if anyone has a comment about the way I've done something please feel free to point it out to me.
