ListView with icon loaded from internet

With the last exercise "Load ImageView with bitmap from internet", we can now modify the the former exercise "Using convertView in getView() to make ListView efficient" to load the icon from internet, instead of loading from our resources.

ListView with icon loaded from internet

please note that in order to permit the App to access to internet, we have to grand it permission of "android.permission.INTERNET"; refer to the last exercise "Load ImageView with bitmap from internet"

Keep usng the /res/layout/row.xml as previous exercise, "ListView, with icon".
