Google Android apps first look

September 1st, 2008

Google’s Android mobile phone platform is getting closer to making it into actual devices and with it comes new apps that we can expect to see. Some initial ones were selected through the Android Developer Challenge. Here are five of them that I thought were particularly interesting:

  • PhoneBook 2.0 - Seems like where cell phone contacts should be already.
  • Wertago - A better use of online maps and a useful tool on a Saturday night.
  • Life360 - A good way to keep connected to your network of contacts.
  • PedNav - A better approach to running errands.
  • cab4me - This could me something that gets people to use cabs more.

You can take a look at the full gallery of apps here.
