Google Sky Map For Your Phone

Just got the new Motorola Droid phone and I love it! It makes my blackberry seem archaic. Comparing the Droid to a blackberry is like comparing a standard cell phone to an 1980 brick sized cell phone…you know what I’m talking about.

So I started downloading applications. There are a ton of them in the “market place”. A few pretty cool ones, but the best is Google Sky Map. It turns you phone into a personal astronomer. Want to know where Uranus is? (insert joke from a 7 year old here).

Using your Android phone orientation sensors, just hold the phone towards the sky and the screen displays the stars and planets regardless of cloud coverage. It uses the device’s compass, GPS, and accelerometer to see the constellations, planets, and stars.

And best of all, it FREE!

What’s your favorite Droid or iPone app?

2009 LA Auto Show, Check Out the Pictures

The 2009 LA Auto Show was this past two weeks at the LA convention center.

The overall show was uninspiring. The major manufactures had little to offer in new designs. There were a few new concept cars and most of the major auto manufactures were there. Ferrari, Lamborgini, and Nissan were absence. Ford, Cheverolet, Audi, Honda, BMW, and Porsche had very good showrooms.

We went on a weekend which may have been a mistake. We showed up early, but it got crowded fast. Now I love kids but…there were 1000′s of 5 year olds lined up to sit in cars while their parents took the cutest pictures. I guess the playgound at McDonalds was closed.

Here’s a slideshow of my favorite cars.
