It my earlier blog I highlighted my top technology picks of 2010 and rated the iPhone 4 as my #1 pick.
I wanted to share a few of my favorite applications and ask you to give me some feedback as to what you enjoy.
Here is my top set of applications.
1. Maps + GPS - I drive an older car with no GPS and can't tell you how many time these apps have saved me. Even when I take the subway to DC I find I use the walking directions to find my final destination.
2. RunKeeper - I love to cross-train and RunKeeper is a great app for people who like to bike, walk, or run outside. It tracks your distance, pace, and maps all this using the integrated GPS.
3. Mail - The iPhone mail application does a great job on a small display. I can keep up with my email very effectively through mail. It integrates with UMBC's email and if you switch to Google and handles most attachments very well. There is just no better mail application on a mobile device.
4. Safari - the iPhone web browser is very good. I use the web browser to read the mobile web sites of the Baltimore Sunpapers and New York Times. While I don't recommend this I have even used the web browser to access Peoplesoft and approve a requisition that needed to go in.
5. iPod/Camera - Having a phone that is also has all your music and can be used as a camera or video recorder is very convenient. Not having to carry other devices on vacation is what it is all about!
6. Facebook - The iPhone facebook application is very good and allows you to quickly keep up with friends. I use it more than the web version when I find I have a few minutes to wait somewhere.
7. Pandora - Pandora is a great application for streaming music. It allows you to enter your tastes and then sends music that fits your taste.
8. Amazon.com - I use this application when shopping. You can do a really quick price comparison to see if you are actually getting the deal you think you are.
9. Reeder - This is a great iPhone application for following Google Reader feeds. The interface is outstanding.
10. Todo - This is the iPhone version of the iPad application I use for managing my tasks. Once you set it up to sync with your Toodledo account you can enter or modify Todo's on any device and sync to the "cloud."
Do you have an iPhone app that you love, if so drop me a note,

With 2010 coming to an end I thought about what I considered to be the best technology tools for 2010. This list is based on tools I’ve used and is thus in no way a complete overview of everything on the market.
1. iPhone 4 - http://www.apple.com/iphone/
The one device that for me is indispensible is my iPhone 4. This device supports me finding my way ( GPS + maps), exercising (iPod + RunKeeper), capturing life (camera and video), staying connected (text, phone, email), and serves as my portable information applicance (web viewer, newspaper reader). Read my list of top iPhone Apps.
2. iPad - http://www.apple.com/ipad/
The iPad is a device that will remember as changing the way people interact with computers. When it first came out it was somewhat limited because it did not support multi-tasking. Since November, when IOS 4.2 came out I’ve been using this device much more and enjoying it immensely. In late November, Google Docs became available on the iPad. I use it to take notes, stay on top of email, manage my tasks, and develop plans. Read my list of top iPad Apps.
3. Google Docs - http://www.google.com/docs
Google docs has become one of my favorite software tools. I have been using it extensively for note taking, agendas, and collaborations. For simple editing tasks it is outstanding, especially if you want to share this with others to collaborate. While it is true that right now docs does not do everything that Microsoft Office does, what it does do works amazingly well. Coupling this with the fact I can now edit and view docs on my iPhone and iPad makes it worth living with what it can’t do.
4. Chrome browser - http://www.google.com/chrome
I have been using Google Chrome as my default browser for the last half year. I found chrome to be a fast and secure browser that of course works very well with google docs. I use this for most of my work but occasionally I find a site that doesn’t work well in Chrome and I bring that up in Firefox. Chrome handles javascript in web pages very well and has tools built into it to help prevent downloading malware. Chrome works on all major platforms.
5. Apple TV/ Netflix - http://www.apple.com/appletv/
The new Apple TV is one my favorite devices at home. Apple TV works with wireless network and has a connection to plug into the HDMI port of your hi-definition TV. The device allows you to play podcasts, youtube videos, or access content from Netflix and iTunes. Netflix offers a streaming instant service that provides thousands of movies and TV shows which has changed the way my family uses TV. This device came out in November and at $99 is much less costly than other devices like it on the market.
6. Windows 7 - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/
As you may tell I tend to be a fan of Apple products. Recently, I helped my youngest son when he built his own computer and he installed Windows 7. I really found windows 7 to be a major improvement in usability and security. Recently, I helped to upgrade my wife’s computer to Windows 7 and really felt it is a major improvement and I must admit, comparable to OSX.
7. Office 2011 ( for Macintosh) - http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products
Office 2011 for the Mac came out in late October and I have found it works well. It brings compatibility with Office 2010 for Windows and fixes a number of minor bugs found in Office 2008. To date I have been very impressed with the quality of the software and the added features. Microsoft added the ribbon interface to Office 2011 and I thought it would be an annoyance but in general I have not found it to be so.
8. Flipboard + Todo http://flipboard.com/ or http://www.appigo.com/todo/ipad
These two iPad applications are great examples of the potential of tablet computing and the kinds of innovative applications that will make tablet computing so compelling. Flipboard is an application that allows you to connect a variety of rich media sites such as facebook, google reader, washington post, and flickr and track what is happening. Todo is a great task manager and integrates with your email and web. For more information look at my article on iPad applications.
9. Logitech Internet Radio -
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/speakers-audio/wireless-music-systems/devices/5847
The vast array of music on the Internet via Internet radio or streaming services such as Pandora make having access to this from something other than a computer very desirable. The logitech Internet Radio provides excellent sound quality and a nice user interface. It you have an iTunes music library on your computer the device can connect to that and play music from your own music library.
10. Kinect - http://www.xbox.com/en-US/kinect
This is one I don’t have but really want! I think this is the future of gaming and will look for this under the tree sometime in 2011.

Full Title: UMBC Chess Team Finishes Strong to Place Second in “World Series of College Chess”Contact: Daniel Clemens
410-852-3974
dpclemens@yahoo.com
BALTIMORE -- Battling weather-induced travel delays, illness and the nation’s top collegiate players, the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) chess team turned in a strong performance to place second in the “World Series of College Chess” that concluded yesterday in Milwaukee.
UMBC earned a draw against the University of Texas-Brownsville in its sixth and final match at the Pan American Intercollegiate Team Chess Championships, which began Monday. The Retrievers rebounded after a hard-fought loss in a key match Wednesday night against the University of Texas-Dallas, the eventual champion.
“It came down to the critical match against Dallas,” said Alan T. Sherman, UMBC chess director. “It just didn’t go our way.”
By finishing in the top four, UMBC qualifies for the other preeminent college chess event: the President’s Cup, scheduled for April 2-3 in Tyson’s Corner, Va. The Retrievers are defending champs of President’s Cup, also known as the “Final Four of College Chess.”
UMBC also was the Pan-Am defending champ, after capturing the last year’s title outright and earning a share of the 2008 title. Today the Retrievers found themselves in unfamiliar territory: second place.
“It feels a little like a defeat that we didn’t finish first,” Sherman said. “It’s a weird feeling.”
Said Sam Palatnik, UMBC’s associate chess director who coached the team at the tournament, “It’s not every time you can be the best in the competition. Every one was fighting and competing. It’s a good place for us. We’ll take it.”
UMBC sent two teams to the tournament and a bright spot was the fifth-place finish of the B-team. Sabina Foisor, a former A-team alternate who led the B-team in Milwaukee, won all five of her games. Against the eventual champs, Foisor, an International Woman Grandmaster from Romania, beat Alejandro Ramirez, a Grandmaster and UT-Dallas’ top player.
“Playing on the first board and going five for five [games], that’s outstanding,” Palatnik said. UT-Dallas went 6-for-6 in its team matches en route to the title. “They really had a well deserved victory,” Sherman said. “They beat all the strong teams.”
UMBC’s task in the crucial match with UT-Dallas was made tougher when one of the Retrievers top players, Giorgi Margvelashvili, played after coming down ill. Margvelashvili came up short in his match, as did Leonid Kritz, another top UMBC player.
“It definitely affected his play,” Sherman said. “If Giorgi had won his game, the outcome could’ve been different.
“Even though they play six rounds, it always comes down to a very short, critical path. A very small number of games determines the outcome. It makes it exciting and frustrating.”
UMBC faced challenges before the tournament began. Last weekend’s major winter storm led to travel delays for some team members.
But Sherman and Palatnik refused to make excuses. Challenges such as weather, travel and illness are part of the game, they said.
“If you had a choice, you’d choose not to have those things,” Palatnik said yesterday by telephone from the Crowne Plaza Hotel, site of the tournament. “But sometimes they happen.”
UMBC has won a record nine Pan-Am titles, including six outright championships to go with three co-titles.
Twenty-eight teams took part in the 2010 Pan-Am, which attracts the top college programs. The event is the most celebrated intercollegiate tournament in the Americas, open to any college or university team from North, South or Central America. Since the tourney’s inception in 1946, dozens of universities throughout the Americas have participated.
The 2010 field included teams from such far-flung schools as the University of Toronto and the University of the West Indies, as well as squads from prominent U.S. schools such as Yale, Stanford and the University of Chicago.
For UMBC, the focus now turns to the President’s Cup, where the Retrievers will square off against the University of Texas-Brownsville and Texas Tech University, in addition to UT-Dallas.
“We’ve got our ticket to the Final Four,” Palatnik said. “We’ll try our best to be ready. We need some work. The competition is much, much stronger.”

There are now over 250,000 iPhone apps. If you are like me, you take your iPhone everywhere, even when exercising. I recently stumbled upon an application that I found to be useful when I exercise. With the new year coming we all like to make to resolutions to get in shape and I thought some may find this of interest as well.
