Ticketmaster for Android (Uni project)

[iaind]

The first thing you need to do is find out if it's actually going to be possible. Find out if they have an API which will allow you to use thier data and booking systems.

If not, you're going to find it ends up as a very difficult exercise in building an illegal tool

Pfft, ignore these naysayers and poo-pooers. I think it's a great idea for the final year project. Even if Ticketmaster release their own app, I'm sure you could add extra features to yours.

If you've got a book on Android development and the SDK then that's a good start. There's plenty of tutorials and demo applications around. http://developer.android.com/ is an amazing resource.

If you've never done any object-orientated programming before then you've got a lot of work (and, if you're the right kind of person, fun) ahead of you. Android's quasi-Java language is a decent place to start though. The great benefit of writing mobile applications is that you can write something useful without it having to be overly complex.

Good luck.
