Google My Tracks for Android

Google released an application called My Tracks for its mobile platform, Android. It simply record tracks of your outdoor activities via built-in GPS functionality. The application is also allowing you to share your activities with the rest of the world via Google Maps, and build a history via Google Docs. Best part is; according to FAQ, you don’t need a data or cell connection while recording your track;

A cell signal or data connection is not required to record GPS tracks. However, if there is no data connection, you will not be able to see satellite imagery or a map. Instead, you will see a grey screen or partial map. Tracks, represented as simple lines, can still be recorded even if there is no data connection.

I hope this application will be available to other platforms soon. The only similar thing I’ve been able to found for Windows Mobile platform was MyMotion, which is able to use downloaded maps (from Google Maps) offline. Never tried it after I’ve read that it is problematic in HTC Touch Diamond though.
