GPS and Relativity
january 2010 by infovore
Fascinating: GPS satellites are both high enough, and travelling fast enough, that you need to correct for relativistic effects in order for them to be effective.

trails - Intuitive GPS tracking on the iPhone
december 2009 by infovore
"Trails is the first GPS iPhone app that allows you to record, import and export tracks onto your iPhone." Also, it's not *too* battery intensive, has a really well thought-out UI, and wasn't too expensive. Very nice.

'Biggest drawing in world' revealed as hoax - Telegraph
may 2008 by infovore
"DHL confirmed to the Telegraph that the artwork was an 'entirely fictional project'." As suspsected. Enthusiastic as I was, I wasn't sure GPS would penetrate that case. Oh well. It's a shame it was presented so realistically; feels a bit cheap.
