Basically, when Google coded their GMail Android Application the used WebView and javascript bridge to allow the app developer to grab events and etc via javascript calls. But this code is not out in the wild and thus I have to hand roll my own. One of the questions that has come up is do I want grab Activity Events.
That would sort of be two way in that the javascript in the WebView page would be able to grab an ActivityEvent, ie what program activity user may be in at that moment. Is this useful? Do not know yet.
However, I do know I should have a SensorEvent classes and interfaces to grab certain sensor stuff which will result in more data that can be geotagged and this of course applies to the Brightkite Client and the Xspot client.
