Now that we have our Arkanoid single player experience complete is time to connect to rest of the world. After all better than show off our high-scores to our friends is to show them to everybody in the Internet!

Hi guys,
I’ve been somewhat quite for the last couple of months, the reason of my silence was a very busy holiday season and a beginning of the year with a lot of work.
Now that i have some free time i restarted to write for MIDP adventures, i already have ready one more lesson about networking and hope to write two more articles, one about “log and debug” and another about “post multipart forms”.
I you have any requests for new articles tutorials feel free to send me an email or a comment.
See you soon
P.S: One of the gifts i received this Christmas has a brand new N95 from the Nokia folks (thanks Ron). Now i can test some new features this device has: internal GPS, motion sensor and hopefully write some articles about these.
