One of the best features of the new Google Android operating system for mobile phones is that it allows you to download countless third party applications from their website, the Android Market, for business or pleasure. Here are a few you might want to look at:
Bartender - Replace that bulky old cocktail book with this nifty electronic cocktail making guide. You can use the track ball or the touch screen to navigate, and you can keep aside your favourite recipes in a favourites folder for easy access.
Bubble - If you ever need to settle an argument about a wonky pool table, then you should download this app, which turns your Android phone into a fully functioning, not to mention flashy looking, spirit level, using the in built accelerometer as a measuring device.
Learn US Civics - If you want to learn a bit more about the US government, then this quiz card game could be a fun way to do it, although there is no scoring mechanism, which kind of takes some of the fun out of it.
Magic 8-Ball - If you have ever doubted the supernatural abilities of your mobile phone, then this app could be the one to change your mind. For years, scientists have been trying to discover just why the Magic 8-Ball gives such uncannily accurate answers all the time, but so far none have succeeded. This app works just like a real magic 8 ball, in that you shake it to get it to give you an answer.
Mario Simulator - If you have ever wanted an app which makes the bell-like noise associated with collecting coins in the Super Mario Bros series of games every time you shake your phone, then this is the one for you! Everyone else should probably steer clear.
MobileBoy - This emulator of the classic Nintendo Gameboy works very well, and comes with all the old favourites including Super Mario Bros and Tetris. The lack of a joypad can make controlling some of the games a little tricky, but it is worth downloading this just for the nostalgia.
Mobile C64 - Back in the day, when home computers had to get by with only 64 kilobytes of RAM and an 8 bit processor, programmers had to put a lot more thought into making computer games fun and addictive. Discover whether this is true or not with this superb C64 simulator, which can play all the old classics on the small screen.
