alterNative Media (aNm) is pleased to announce that we have deployed the Caddo Language app for Android devices, available for download from the Android Market. The Caddo Language app (v1.0.0) is a feature-rich mobile application that allows users to search for the Caddo translation of a word or phrase by entering an English word.

alterNative Media is committed to bringing the power of innovative technology to the Native community, so integrating this Cultural information with an Adroid app was a logical and exciting choice for us," says Michael Sheyahshe - CIO Developer for aNm - an enrolled member of the Caddo Nation. "By adding the Caddo Language app to the Android Market, we've made it extremely easy for the global community to help retain an immensely important Indigenous cultural resource. We developed an application that celebrates the Caddo language...available right on your Android mobile device."

Caddo is a language, made of several dialects, from the Caddoan linguistic stock of the Southern Plains and primarily spoken by members the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma. The Caddo Language app allows individuals to interactively search for Caddo words from an internal database (no Internet connection needed after installation) and the app suggests possible entries to choose from, as you type.

Android Market is an online software store developed by Google for Android devices. An application program ("app") called "Market" is preinstalled on most Android devices and allows users to browse and download apps published by
third-party developers, hosted on Android Market. The website, rather than the
Market app itself, provides details of some of the available apps, in particular
those that are termed "Featured", "Top Paid" and "Top Free". For a comprehensive, up-to-date list of the tens of thousands of titles available,check out Android Market on your handset.

Digital Language Preservation Test

In an effort to make Caddo language more accessible to a global community, I am testing the use of Blist, "an online social database" website.

Here is the CaddoLanguge Blist, which allows searching its contents by using the "Find in this Blist" text field.

I will continue to test this and other communication modes. For now, enjoy the Blist and keep Hasinai alive by learning and using the language.

It's been quite eventful few months so far, but we're not through yet!

I am pleased to announce that aNm has not only acquired a contract with Chickasaw Nation Industries ("CNI") from late last year (2006), but we have also been awarded contracts with the Caddo Nation (May 2007) and All Points Logistics, Inc. ("APL" June 2007) for various aspects of website design and maintenance.

Look for changes on both the Caddo website as well as APL's "FirstSource" website associated with a US Government Department!
