Funny to see the difference between Quora and Reddit. Quora has long been the target of marketing, so the referral for sources might be a bit biased because of that. I started learning droid with Thenewboston, but the tuts now seemed to be outdated because of the frequent updates.
They do, but a lot of developers who learned from these tutorials a long while ago still recommend Buck heavily on Quora. The reason partially being that it was one of the most easy tuts available. And plus, you gotta love Bucky! :D
