Web services - PicasaViewer
PicasaViewer is a cross platform app that shows the top featured images on the Picasa web gallery and allows the user to search for specific images on the service. PicasaViewer uses the Tantalum 5 library.
The app was developed first as a Series 40 MIDlet with a platform independent core in mind. The Android UI was added after the S40 MIDlet was complete. Then the application was ported to Nokia Asha software platform.
