guys..I'm in my senior year and I need to make a senior project by next semester. I'm planning to make a mobile application that will send the data to a computer and store it in a database and finally output it in a webpage or something. the problem is I do not know where to start...I've been searching the net on how to send data from a cellphone to a computer but I cant get any ideas. Can anybody please help with this? I mean does anybody know how to sent data from a cellphone to a computer via GPRS or something. I would like to hear some suggestions from you guys..thanks hope to hear from yo soon

Bluetooth, InfraRed (OBEX) or traditional HTTP/HTTPS.
As you want to do later publish last option would be most suitable

That is exactly what I warned about. Code snippets, with zero explanation, you have zero idea what you doing. On top of that any networking activity requires use of Threads which above website doesn't show.
My rating for you on provided resources, out of 5 stars you only get half star for attempt to search...
