Google has announced Maps Navigation, its own free navigation app for mobile devices.
The application is currently in beta and only for the Android platform; however, its likely that an iPhone version won't be far behind.
Google Maps Navigation was built from the ground up to take advantage of your phone's Internet connection. It features 3D views, turn-by-turn voice guidance and automatic rerouting.
SPECIAL FEATURES:
The most recent map and business data
When you use Google Maps Navigation, your phone automatically gets the most up-to-date maps and business listings from Google Maps — you never need to buy map upgrades or update your device. And this data is continuously improving, thanks to users who report maps issues and businesses who activate their listings with Google Local Business Center.
Search in plain English
Google Maps Navigation brings the speed, power and simplicity of Google search to your car. If you don't know the address you're looking for, don't worry. Simply enter the name of a business, a landmark or just about anything into the search box, and Google will find it for you. Then press "Navigate", and you're on your way.
Search by voice
Typing on a phone can be difficult, especially in the car, so with Google Maps Navigation, you can say your destination instead. Hold down the search button to activate voice search, then tell your phone what you want to do (like "Navigate to Pike Place in Seattle"), and navigation will start automatically.
Traffic view
Google Maps Navigation gets live traffic data over the Internet. A traffic indicator light in the corner of the screen glows green, yellow or red, depending on the current traffic conditions along your route. If there's a jam ahead of you, you'll know. To get more details, tap the light to zoom out to an aerial view showing traffic speeds and incidents ahead. And if the traffic doesn't look good, you can choose an alternate route.
Search along route
For those times when you're already on the road and need to find a business, Google Maps Navigation searches along your route to give you results that won't take you far from your path. You can search for a specific business by name or by type, or you can turn on popular layers, such as gas stations, restaurants or parking.
Satellite view
Google Maps Navigation uses the same satellite imagery as Google Maps on the desktop to help you get to your destination. Turn on the satellite layer for a high-resolution, 3D view of your upcoming route. Besides looking cool, satellite view can help you make sense of complicated maneuvers.
Street View
If you want to know what your next turn looks like, double-tap the map to zoom into Street View, which shows the turn as you'll see it, with your route overlaid. And since locating an address can sometimes be tricky, we'll show you a picture of your destination as you approach the end of your route, so you'll know exactly what to look for.

There are occasions when you'll need to call prospects, talk to business partners, answer questions that somebody has, or some other business task that needs the telephone. You could be announcing, "No matter what I guarantee I'll never call anyone" but what if someone calls you? You'll need telephone talents then too. The issue with this telephone fact is that the majority are frightened to chat business on the telephone.
we've got a dread of failing or refusal on the telephone that causes us to mess up in our speech, forget what we wish to say, or simply fully freeze up. If you would like to harvest all the advantages of being your own chairperson then you'll have to overcome your fear at some point. Online casinos have their own andvantages compared with the genuine ones. Safety of your house permits you to think thru and apply different possible tactical steps in quiet atmosphere with no fuss. The best one ( $1 five hundred 000 ) was won in the online casino. The common sum for a winning is some hundred bucks, which are won constantly. To gamble on virtual money you are getting pleasure as well as a sum, that will be moved to your plastic card or an account.

When you sign up for Google Voice -- which is still not widely available to the public (you need to get an invite or request one) -- you can either choose Google one-stop phone number or keep your own for a more pared-down experience. Keeping your old digits gives you:
Going for the full-throttle Google experience gives you all of the above plus:
If you already have a Google Voice number, you can add the voicemail option to any mobile phone associated with the account. Some of the awesome benefits are explained in Google's YouTube explanation:
Since voicemails are transcribed and placed online, even made publicly available for sharing purposes, there has been some danger of said voicemails appearing in search results. Happily, Google circumvented this problem earlier this month.
These new features are both freeing and limiting: you can keep your number but sacrifice some of the goodies that make Google Voice a powerful contender in the telephony business. Full number portability is likely coming in the future, after, of course, Google deals with AT&T, Apple, and the FCC. But some have high hopes that eventually the opposition will grow to accept and embrace Google Voice
According to a recent survey, an overwhelming 60 percent of Americans are not satisfied with their current way of waking up. Recognizing the need for a better way to start the day, especially with the arrival of daylight saving, Philips has announced today the launch of its Wake-up Light - an innovative product that provides a more pleasant wake-up experience. At the same time, Philips - a leader in health & well-being with a proven track record in sleep solutions - has teamed up with the National Sleep Foundation to launch a unique education campaign that illustrates the impact a healthy "sleep and wake-up" routine can have as well as ways to help everyone feel like a morning person - even on dark, cold mornings when it's often difficult to get out of bed.
The Philips Wake-up Light is an alarm clock that simulates a natural sunrise to make waking up more enjoyable and energizing. Research has shown a slow dawn effect is clinically proven to have an impact on quality of awakening, subsequent energy levels at the start of your day, and improves mood(1) compared to traditional loud alarm clocks that tend to jolt the body to wake.
"Light is a critical element to the daily sleep/wake cycle," states Jacopo D'Alessandris, Vice-President of Marketing North America, Philips Consumer Lifestyle. "The Philips Wake-up Light is great for those who are tired of waking up to the sound of a jarring alarm clock and want to positively improve their daily wake-up routine. Using it can significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to peel back the sheets to get out of bed, and start the day with renewed energy."
The recent survey conducted by Philips also found that nine in ten people hit the snooze button at least once before being able to get out of bed. For those who need the extra nine minutes of slumber, the Philips Wake-up Light may be an ideal solution to establishing a more natural routine. The light gradually turns on 30 minutes before the programmed wake up time, preparing the body to wake up feeling well-rested. At the end of the 30-minute period, there is the option of four natural sounds (chirping birds, a gentle beep, African jungle sounds or soft chimes), FM radio or music from an iPod® and iPhone® (Wake-up Light Music version only). In addition to the sunrise simulator, the Wake-up Light also features a dusk simulator that can be incorporated into a nighttime routine to help prepare for sleep.
Philips/National Sleep Foundation Program
Many people recognize the importance of getting a good night's sleep, however the wake-up experience is often overlooked, and this is an equally important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. To educate the public about the benefits of proper "sleep hygiene," Philips has paired up with the National Sleep Foundation to execute a series of initiatives to help people establish a healthy sleep and wake-up routine. The National Sleep Foundation has developed the Sleep Pyramid, a concept created in conjunction with Philips that is a unique resource to illustrate sleep advice and tips to achieve a more positive sleep/wake-up environment.
"We are delighted to be working with Philips on this exciting sponsorship," said David Cloud, Chief Executive Officer, National Sleep Foundation. "The Wake-up Light, in conjunction with the simple guidelines found in the Sleep Pyramid, can help people and improve their overall sleep and waking habits. Good sleep hygiene includes better appreciation of and exposure to light at the right time of day."
Tips from the Sleep Pyramid include:
1. Develop Morning Rituals to Wake Up Refreshed: Increasing exposure to
light in the morning can help you be alert, especially when combined
with other morning rituals, such as stretching, a cup of coffee and
planning the day ahead. Try to get out in the morning sun as your
alertness can depend on exposure to natural light.
2. Manage Your Sleep-Wake Cycle: The first light of each day sets your
schedule for your natural sleep-wake cycle. Gradually maximizing
exposure to light each morning and gradually reducing exposure to light
in the evening will help you get the sleep you need. The Philips
Wake-up Light - a premium alarm clock that simulates a natural sunrise
- is a good way to enhance your wake-up experience and morning routine,
as it provides a more pleasant, refreshed wake-up and gives you the
energy you need to start your day. It also features a dusk simulator
to help prepare you for sleep at night.
3. Establish Evening Rituals for Going to Sleep: Relaxing activities
before bedtime help separate sleep time from excitement, stress and
anxiety. Reading a book, soaking in a hot bath or listening to
soothing music away from bright lights can help signal you that it is
time to sleep.
4. Reserve Your Bedroom for Sleep: Keep work and other distractions out
of your bedroom. Making your bedroom a sanctuary for rejuvenation will
strengthen your positive association between your bedroom and sleep.
5. Optimize Your Sleep Environment: Design your bedroom to be cool, dark,
quiet, comfortable and free of interruptions. Choose a quality
mattress that is right for you and the way you sleep.
