Okay I already loved my lil' G1 Android phone, but now google is making me love it even more! There's a new program called Google Tracks, and you can record your paths and it will record your journey via GPS and can then upload it to your personalized google maps. THEN it gives you DATA which you all know I LOVE data! Today I walked home from work:

Total Distance: 5.22 km (3.2 mi)
Total Time: 48:46
Moving Time: 40:47
Average Speed: 6.45 km/h (4.0 mi/h)
Average Moving Speed: 7.68 km/h (4.8 mi/h)
Max Speed: 8.10 km/h (5.0 mi/h)
Min Elevation: 16 m (52 ft)
Max Elevation: 151 m (497 ft)
Elevation Gain: 513 m (1683 ft)
Max Grade: 43 %
Min Grade: 8 %

At times the GPS tracking is a little wonky (unless I walked inside a few buildings without even noticing) but otherwise it's supercool. Plus I can see how many times I had to cross the street because a damned sidewalk was closed.
