Moving from OpenDNS to Google DNS | DecisionStats.

Got ADB Much?

Monday, February 6th, 2012

Working much with ADB? I have been spending WAY TOO much time with it. It is the Android Debugging Bridge.

Some of the most useful features I have come across to get files moving around are these:

adb pull <remote file> <local file>

- and –

adb push <local file> <remote file>

Invaluable. Like FTP, but very fast and convenient. Hope that helps someone!

“Done is better than perfect”. Hmm. Seems to fall in line with what I know from Guy Kawasaki. And I’ve heard many times the adage, “Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good enough”. It sort of goes against the grain of engineers, but I think it represents someone who has the perspective of needing to keep pressing forward and to continue making money. Its wise, but it sounds reckless. I like it.
