Screaming Penguin

I forgot to mention it here, but a small app I have been working on for a few weekends is now in the market: BookWorm. BookWorm is an app that keeps track of books, those you have read (your collection), and those you want to read. (Props to my wife for the idea, this started as an app she wanted.) Right now the graphics are a not entirely polished, and I haven't completed all the functionality I want it to have, but it's a solid start. I spent a good amount of time on making sure common Android problems, like force closes on orientation changes, and high resource consumption, are addressed and that the functionality that is there is fast and stable. I plan to add the ability to sync with online book sources (such as Google Books, and others), and other social aspects, in upcoming releases. BookWorm is open source too, you can see and get the code here. A few issues I ironed out during development involved things like using the ViewHolder pattern to really speed up my ListView (while working with a custom CursorAdapter to get data), making sure AsyncTasks don't crash on orientation changes, and a few tweaks to make my HttpHelper (based on Apache HttpClient) better. All that's in the code, of course, and I plan to add some tutorials based on it here at a later date when I have time. Check it out if you get a chance, grab it, install it, let me know what you think.
