I know I have mentioned before I am a Windows Mobile user from a long time ago, back when WM5 was big and I had a Pantech Flip Phone that was a smartphone and have loved it ever since. Well, I have also mentioned that I am a WP7 convert now as well and one of the apps I used in WM6.1 was one of the apps that pushed me to go with WP7. It is called TrackMe and is a GPS tracking app that connects either to the server they have set up for the users of the app or you can even set up your own server if you are so inclined, which of course I am. This app is free and can be grabbed from here… http://www.luisespinosa.com/trackme_eng.html as well as straight from the marketplpace in WP7 and works quite nicely. With the app you can either send the entries every few feet to the server providing almost real time updates or you can even store them all on your device and then upload them when you have time, this way you can save your battery, personally I like my family seeing my trip real time so they can see where I am while I am out, just in case. Another big positive about the app is it was developed by Luis Espinosa and then ported to WP7 by a developer named _LEM_ and both of them are very receptive to features you may want or need. The app will even run under a locked screen which is another big positive. This app also makes it so you can see your track on google earth if you are interested in that. So if you are looking for a way to track your excursions, whether they be walking, running, biking, or even driving this app may be a very good app to add to your phone so take a look at it.
