This post is for those of you who have decided to join the thundering herd of computer nerds who have decided to code for Android.  "Hello, Android" was easy... what happens next?

How about the "Three Activity" project?  The "Three Activity" application demonstrates
  • Navigation between three separate displays (each backed by a dedicated Activity)
  • How to pass arguments between Activity(s)
  • How to create and use a Button
  • How to create and use an EditText
  • How to use Android log statements
  • Special guest appearance w/AndroidManifest.xml

The "Three Activity" project is a simple application consisting of the three Activity(s) shown below.
