I want my app to run things in the background, even when the user is donig other things on his Android
<p>What should I look at to get started?</p>

<p>Is it Timer? <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Timer.html" rel="nofollow">http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Timer.html</a></p>

<p>Or am I missing something else?</p>
