Hands Across The Sand is an organization committed to protecting our coastlines and waterways from near and off shore oil drilling. Join us February 13, 2010!
An organization devoted to protecting our coastlines and waterways from the devastating environmental effects of oil exploration and support industries.
Mission:
1. To raise awareness about pending Florida legislation to drill for oil within 3 to 10 miles of our coast
2. To organize a statewide, coastal movement to protest this legislation. This protest will bring thousands of Florida citizens to our beaches and will draw metaphorical and physical lines in the sand; human lines in the sand against near shore oil drilling in our waters. This event will be held on Saturday February 13, 2010
3. To convince our Legislators and Governor to drop any and all Legislation that would allow this folly.
The following is the Motorola Droid running the Android OS version 2.0 uploaded directly from the phone to youtube. I know the footage is kinda bumpy but it show how well the camera/video records when conditions are “rough”.
Nearly every night before I go to sleep I check the Market store for new apps. I have viewed every app (several thousand now) and installed (and uninstalled) maybe 150 that seemed worthy. This list is good for the person who just purchased a new G1 and doesn’t know which good apps to get. Here is my top 10 list:
1) Star Map. This is the definitive application for showing off your G1. No other phone has the necessary hardware. It uses the accelerometers and compass to know which orientation the phone is in and prints the star map on the screen. http://www.starreservoir.com/
2) All application written by Google. By default, not all Google apps come preinstalled. Here are the current list of Google apps: My Maps Editor, Scoreboard, Finance, Picasa Uploader, My Tracks.
3) AK Notepad. A full featured notepad app. Until google (or third party) integrates Google “Tasks” or “Notes”. AK Notepad is the shit. http://www.kurniadi.org/aknotepad/
4) Ringdroid. Nicely polished ringtone app. Take any music file and chop it into a ringtone. Simple, full featured and intuitive. http://code.google.com/p/ringdroid/
5) Weatherbug. It’s a tiny bit bloated but I love it. Runs in the notification bar and always gives you local data as you travel. Gets better with every release. http://weather.weatherbug.com/mobile/android.html
6) WikiMobile. Fast as poop wiki search engine. Nice.
7) Free Dictionary. Fast as eff dictionary search engine.
8) ShopSavvy. Scan barcode and get the best prices online and locally.
9) PF Voicemail. Voicemails are downloaded to phone and organized with relevant data (time, duration caller id). You can listen to only the voice mails you want and in the order you want. Way faster than T-Mobile dial in!! This should be built into the phone.
10) Flashlight (by Devesh Parekh). There are a bazillion flashlights. This is the best. Max brightness and anti sleep. What more do you need?
Others that are good but didn’t make the top 10:
– OI Countdown. A simple countdown timer.
– Stopwatch. Stopwatch.
– Voice Recorder. doi.
– PicSay. Edit and caption photos.
– SMS Backup. Backs up all your SMS/MMS messages to Google email then archives and tags them.
– Convert That. Convert anything into anything (for nerds).
– Bartender. Gets better with every release. Online database and custom drinks.
– Astro File Manager Has Application backup feature!! backs up your .akp files to the SD card. Sweet.
