Google has decided to name different versions of Android according to sweet pastries. According to a recent interview by Erick Tseng Android’s next big interation will be known as FroYo. Froyo is the Short Term for “frozen yogurt” and another creative name in the Android version history:
- Initial Version = Android 1.1 – Release Date: 10.02.2009
- Cupcake = Android 1.5 – Release Date: 30.04.2009
- Donut = Android 1.6 – Release Date: 15.09.2009
- Eclair = Android 2.0/2.1 – Release Date: 26.10.2009/12.01.2010
- Froyo = maybe Android 2.5 – Release Date: expected in April/May 2010
So it will not be Flan for the “F” version of Android (alphabetical order), as most of you thought. So we will see when Froyo actually is officially released and what the “G” version of Android might be. Any suggestions for G? I think Android will success its sweet journey in 2010 at least until H. I think we will see a lot of usability improvements for the next versions.
Bon Appetit!
