Sky Map
The Google Sky Map G1 app is a cool novelty application that allows you to discover and get detailed information about the night sky. When you point your G1 up at the night sky, the application will show a map of the brightest stars, planets, and constellations in that part of the sky. It works like a charm. The sky map is very detailed and shows most major stars, all the planets (in our solar system that is), and all the major constellations.
The killer feature is the ability to search for a particular celestial object, say a planet, and the application will guide you towards the right part of the sky. You just have to follow an arrow on the screen once you point your G1 up to the sky. The interface is smooth, with no jittering or lags as you sweep your G1 across the night sky. Overall, a nifty novelty app that can come in handy to learn more about the night sky or to entertain youngsters.
