Dunno if it was already mentioned (ironically the "search this thread" function doesn't work from my phone ) but Reckless Getaway is the only android game that I keep coming back to.

Yeah, it's pretty decent but doesn't seem to allow a chronological view of all feeds (it doesn't put Twitter and Facebook into the Latest view).

Just loaded on Flipboard. looks good but the Google Reader integration doesn't seem to be working ATM.

Didn't think Flipboard was on Android only iOS?

Any chance you would make a list of what you use currently to show the difference?

BeoirFinder: A great app to find your nearest pub, off-licence or restaurant selling Irish craft beer. Have been running the IOS version for a while. Glad that it's finally available for Android platforms.

TuneIn Radio - Interweb Radio (and soundhound integration on sense 4.0)
Facebook Messenger - What is says on the tin
Viber -
Whatsapp -
Chrome - Prefer to stock browser

Anyone know of an app that automaticly changes your background wallpaper? Like on windows, you select a folder with images and it just changes it every hour/day/whatever time limit you set?
I was using Zedge but that feature stops working every so often.

Got that ADW ex launcher. Have to say best 2.50 I've ever spent. Galaxy tab 7.7. Leaves Samsung's 'touchwiz', or whatever the hell you call it, in the shade

Multipicture Live seems to do that. Change picture by time interval option, different wallpaper for each home screen, double tap screen to change picture. Transition effect. etc. etc... You can even get a plugin for Picasa. Never used it, but sounds pretty good, if it does what it says on the tin

Can anyone help with an app recommendation? I'm looking for the best extension/app/whatever to integrate all my news, twitter feeds etc. Needs to integrate with Twitter, facebook and multiple RSS feeds. Would like it to work on my Windows PC and Android phone and tablet, with syncing across all three. Should preferably integrate with a central source for RSS feeds, i.e. Google Reader, and also open links, etc within the app, preferably on a preview pane or similar (except phone maybe). Any suggestions?

Currently using the Persona Chrome app on my PC which will take all the feeds I throw at it, but doesn't integrate with Reader, or my other devices. Works great though. Use Pulse on my tablet; looks great but no Reader integration. Use Seesmic on my phone for Twitter/Facebook, but no RSS feeds. Am I asking too much?

Flipboard will be my GO to for this when it finally comes out on Android ;-)

Also can anyone recommend a website that recommends new apps and gives reviews etc

Thanks

I think that Boards is so heavily customized that's it virtually impossible to make a workable app
