# Up or Down?

A super-simple sample Android application that uses

http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com to test whether or not a website is

online.

This app is written in Mirah using the Pindah build tool. It

demonstrates the following:

* Basic Mirah syntax for use with Pindah

* How to use blocks and Android callbacks with Mirah

* How to leverage third-party Java libraries in Mirah (jsoup)

* How to handle exceptions in Mirah

* How to deal with Mirah scoping weirdness (this = self)

## Homework Ideas

* Add a ProgressDialog and make the site test an AsyncTask

* Record a log of website test history to a ListView

* Allow users to browse test history through a separate activity

* Store test history in a local Sqlite database (ListAdapter)
