Google Maps on Nokia E65 now with layers

Have you ever tried to do four things at the same time on your mobile google maps and failed miserably as a result of its "one-tracked mind"? You may search for a restaurant but when you work out the directions, you think about searching for a close petrol station along the way, suddenly your customised directions are gone! You pull over to the side of the road and start again...

You may have gotten used to using customised maps on Google Maps and creating your own "world" which shows favourite restaurants, friends' houses, places you want to go etc. Well now with the latest Google Maps for mobile you can see these customised maps when you are using your mobile phone!

Sports Tracker Now Broadcasting your Workout LIVE


With a GPS enabled device, you can be cheered on by your training buddies as you are running around the Swan River and they are sitting in an office in New York. What really surprised me is that even in my sleepy town of Perth, Western Australia, there are people already logging their workouts on the Sports Tracker website (see below). The map shows people are joining up to Nokia Sports Tracker to broadcast where and when they ran/walked/canoed/cycled.


With the website, you can also:
  • Upload what photos or videos you took along the way
  • See where you reached your purple patch and ran like crazy
  • Share with people what you were listening to during your run on your mobile
  • Add training buddies to your sportstracker.
Just a word of caution: Don't broadcast your live workout if you are alone and if you are running from your home for obvious safety reasons.

Going on a run has never been so interactive and this really shows you what era we all find ourselves in. Check out http://sportstracker.nokia.com and be ready to cheer on MyE65 the next time I take a run, or rather, walk along the river.
