As someone asked already about the location map on the right, its time I give credit where it is due.
I had a play with trackme earlier in the year on our road/hiking trip up from Salt Lake to Yellowstone, but found the application a little “interesting” to get installed and working. My HTC X7500 Advantage at the time struggled with battery life, especially when running the GPS all day. Also after ~12 days the data produced would struggle to display in google maps. It was however great that it was all automatic and allowed friends and family to track our progress if they wished. Viewing our holiday photos, and following where we were.
On Friday a friend mentioned something he had been playing with, and pointed me to his new blog to see it in action. What I saw looked exactly what I was after, just a quick check there was a client available for my Windows mobile 6.1 HTC Diamond Pro and I was ready to go.
So now I have the ipoki client running on my phone, getting its position from the inbuilt GPS, and sending that information to my ipoki account via GPRS/HSPDA. This is linked to my Fire Eagle account and updates it. Finally Fire Eagle updates my Blogloc account and that is what you see in the side bar.
