If you drive on the road, you need this app - Off-topic

I found this cool app called Driving Assistant Robin. It is similar to Siri sort of. The main goal of the app is for you to make driving on the road easier.
It does this by SPEAKING an ETA and it gives you an alternative route if it believes your going to be stuck in traffic forever. It will also read incoming text messages and emails while you are driving.
It has some more features as well... however, the best feature is that it is FREE.
Learn more about it here:

I am just trying to help keep people safe on the road.
Hundreds of people die every year because they read a text or an email while they are driving. Now, they don't have to worry about this because Driving Assistant Robin will read the email and text message for you while you drive. The app is free as well... you should really go and check it out!

ah? Pretty sure you will need this app the most because of all the people you might hit.

i think they need a human targeting device to further improve the accuracy on sidewalks

I live in a coastal area. It is (or should be) impossible to get lost.
I'll never need a gps, or a GPS app of any sort. If someone gets lost here, they don't deserve to be found.

Definitively going to try this. Thanks for the info. If you have any more software like this, please share with us.
I saw the app and the first thing that came into my head was:
"Have you ever wanted to be a stalker but were afraid to try? Would you like to be stalked or just followed by strangers?"

LOL That would be a great Saturday Night Live sketch, Dan Akroyd would be great!
I also found out something else, Gippos is a derogatory term for Gypsies, the things you learn on Google.

Probaly ranks right up there with the popular "trackme" progam thats so popular and developed from this forum then
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340667
I use this along with a couple friends, its handy to chat and see where they are. I find it less annoying then some of the popular messenger programs that people try to add you as a contact and then spam you. I have had more requests on icq and msn to be added from strangers. This one reguires authorization to add someone to your contact list to as most others do.
If I see a suspious car or helicopter or someone walking behind me holding a wm phone with gippos running , I will let you know If your into stalking you could also try myspace, craiglist or some online youth chat programs, They make the news every so often with good stories about it.

Very funny....but thinking about the i-junkies' tendency I highly recommend to register all the i-names to make money without moving our a.s.s
I personally want to register the trademark, i-pee.....it is the upcoming catheter all the i-junkies would be using when they get enlarged prostate.
You people have any of your own?

R.I.P. FileSonic & Uploaded.to ?

http://www.prefixmag.com/news/filesonic-disables-file-sharing/60803/
So you have no doubt heard about the insanity surrounding the shutting down of MegaUpload, particularly the wild story about how the file-sharing website's founder was arrested in high fashion. Well, this has all clearly spooked other file-sharing services, including FileSonic. If you go to its homepage, you're greeted by a message that reads: "All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally." Not only that, but Uploaded.to is no longer available for use in the U.S.
Wow. Do you think anyone else will fold in light of the ongoing witch hunt? And could a major player like Mediafire go under?
Update: The FileSonic Facebook page has now disappeared. Props

Update: Uploaded.to has blocked all U.S. visitors as a response to the MegaUpload takedown
Uploaded.to has no service in the USA

not exactly Lamar, the author of SOPA could come back with an even worse bill
http://live.drjays.com/index.php/2012/01/20/sopa-is-defeated-but-new-internet-bill-gains-critics/
fear is already programed into most Americans
So lets make the bill into something more appealing.
What would people fear the most, something happening to their children
And how dare anyone go against something to helps children
total manipulation
i hope everyone with a filesonic account asks for a refund.
