Comment on 7 Awesome mobile Apps On My Android Smartphone Right Now… by Don Barker https://gisuser.com/2012/07/7-awesome-mobile-apps-on-my-smartphone-right-now/#comment-309 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 17:07:00 +0000 http://blog.gisuser.com/?p=11431#comment-309 Glenn, Can you me more @mayrlandgis about the Pinterest app?  Dozens come up on GPlay, and I can’t find the one you name.

My top Android apps are:

– Google Reader.  Since I connected with social media to widen career horizons, this is my first stop whenever I have a spare moment.

– TweetDeck.  My second stop.  Because it points me to blog posts, and to blogs to add to Reader.  It’s even better — simpler — on Android than in Chrome.  Because it opens to where I left off in time moving forward.  Even compels me to keep up and check in often.

– Firefox browser.  Syncs my desktop and mobile bookmarks like no other.  (Like no other available on Android 2.4 that runs on my DroidX.)

There has been a lot of great help from a lot of people.

Since last night we’ve moved the map to http://cohighparkfiremap.org/ (thanks to @ImNickArmstrong:twitter ) where we’ll do our best to keep it up-to-date.

I don’t have as much time today to focus on mapping, but I still have an armchair fascination and appreciation. Let me know what I can do to help, and keep up the great work!
