[QUOTE="Nytmare, post: 7652479, member: 55178"] I will not be Gencon-ing this year, but if I were, here are my top 5 app picks for the Droid, in no particular order: [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glympse.android.glympse&hl=en"]Glympse[/URL]- An app that allows you to broadcast your immediate location to people via a link to a web page map. No one has to download or install anything but you, and in addition to broadcasting your location, it can also give an ETA to a specific destination. Useful if someone is trying to find you and neither one of you knows any landmarks, and an easy way to let people know how close you are to a restaurant without having to call and give updates as to when you're leaving, and how close you are. [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alienmanfc6.wheresmyandroid&hl=en"]Where's My Droid[/URL]- A find-your-phone app that allows you to (among other things) remotely turn the phone on, turn on gps, adjust volume, and broadcast the phone's location to google maps. [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pdanet&hl=en"]PDA Net [/URL]- PDA Net allows you to turn your phone into a WiFi Hotspot or USB modem without having to pay for a tethering plan. This app is a life saver. [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ki.wardrive&hl=en"]Wardrive [/URL]- Wardrive allows you to scan and store information about the wifi networks around you and saves the information to a map so that you can see where the open networks are in the places you've been. [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anod.calendar"]Simple Calendar [/URL]- If, like me, you've already sold your soul to google, then you want this widget to show you a nice simple view of all the games you want to play and discussions you want to attend that you cleverly already put into your google calendar.
