You’ve seen those new type of flashlights that will re-charge simply by “wacking” it.  Now, here’s a company that will take that concept further so you can re-charge your batteries simply through motion.

If you take a bus or simply walk a lot on your way to work, this type of re-charging device will be great at re-charging your batteries for free.  (at least you have to walk anyways)

With the M2E Power, this device is able to juice up your favorite devices on the go simply by relying on Faraday’s principal - “wherein energy is produced from the motion of a magnet passing through a coil”. Guess cell phones (and other portable electronics) that use this technology will be able to convert kinetic energy into talktime, or at least more battery power for you to enjoy your favorite MP3s and videos on it a little bit longer.

Wow, it looks like someone had to hook up all their old cellphones to an electric piano.  Each key on the piano responds to a dial button on one of those phones, creating a dial-tone.  Of course, there’s not enough dial-tones to cover all the notes.

The cell phone piano. Each key on the keyboard is wired into a key on a cell phone - as you play, you are also dialing. The channels are mixed together and amplified through speakers. Every sound the piano makes is generated by one of the four phones. The white keys play notes and the black keys are people saying the number out loud - English on the left hand and Spanish on the right. Some white keys were left over and I made those percussion instruments (the “*”, “END”, and “#” keys).

Check out the new Android SDK, a developer’s kit so you can build apps for the new Android Platform. (Note: Android is simply an open-source operating system that can run on cellphones, it’s not the cellphone itself.)

Maybe we will try making a SiteHoppin application for the Android soon so you can hop on the new Android phones. (It already works on iPhones)

Google is also giving out $10 million to the best Android app developer. Cool stuff, we might have to start developing for that challenge.

Sergey looks like he just got up, did he take a shower yet?

On the bright side, I think Sergey and Google is doing a great job promoting open-source platforms and linux.  (Android is basically Linux hacked to run on mobile phones with lots of Google stuff embedded.)

This will be exciting as Google will really try to take over the world with cellphone software and make my GoogleMaps work better too.
