What are the Top 5 Running Apps

Technology has added a geeky dimension to one of the oldest and most primal human activities.



Humans have been running for millennia but fast track to 2011 and runners, including us, are discovering the benefits these apps and other such GPS-enabled devices provide. Now we have the athlete igeek!

You probably know one, too. They're easily identified standing on a street corner waiting for a lock on a satellite signal. The athlete igeek is powerless without it for how else will he or she keep track of distance traversed, time elapsed, top speeds and total calories expended?

We looked at adidas micoach and the Garmin range of GPS watches to monitor our progress. Were we getting faster? Could we pace ourselves so we didn't run ourselves into the ground too early? The data at our fingertips offered answers to these questions and more.

Websites like Garmin Connect even display the data from other user's runs from around the world.

Many of these running apps are free but a few feature packed apps will set you back a few dollars.

What are the top 5 running apps? Here they are:

1. adidas micoach,
2. iMapMyRun,
3. Runkeeper
4. Nike+,
5. Runmeter GPS

Nikon D7000 Camera

We love the new Nikon D7000 camera. It's light, small and delivers quality. Smaller weight and size is becoming much more important to a lot of people. Shoot high-definition movies too! This camera is brilliant to hold and use. Nikon has done it again and has made the user interface more usable and streamlined.

Highlights
-  Stunning image details: 16.2 effective megapixels
-  Improved image quality and speed: EXPEED 2 image processing engine. Sometimes you want to capture the subtle tones of a sunset. Other times you want to freeze the action and the D7000 delivers both.
-  Standard ISO 100 to 6400, expandable to ISO 25600 equivalent
-  Capture Full HD 1080p D-Movie with full-time autofocus and manual exposure
-  Wide-area coverage, powerful 39-point AF. There is also 3D tracking which continuously follows moving objects within the 39 AF points.
-  Contrast AF for live view and D-Movie
- Magnesium used to make camera stronger
- 921k-dots, 170 degree viewing angle, 3-inch LCD monitor
- Twin SC card slots - outstanding!
- Great battery life

Expect a Rush for the New and Improved iPad

It's the gadget every tech junkie has been waiting for. Apple CEO lifted the lid on the long awaited, highly anticipated second generation iPad at a conference in San Francisco.  The iPad 2 doesn't seek to reinvent the successful original which has sold more the 15 million units and started a race towards developing tablet computers. The new iPad refines everything that made the iPad so popular. However, a few features were added that users felt were missing from the original device.

Now available in black and white in 3G and 3G Wifi versions, the iPad2 is 8.8mm thick and weighs in at 117g lighter than the original. It now features a dual core processor and better graphics card. Cameras mounted on both the front and back of the Apple iPad 2 can be used for video calling services.

The iPad will be released on March 11 in the US and March 25 in Australia.
