3. 1. Seesmic
There are many Twitter apps on Android – and Twitter
itself shook up the scene with the launch of its own-
brand app recently – but we’re sticking with Seesmic.
Offering support for multiple accounts, a home page
widget showing latest tweets and an incredibly slick
and professional design, it’s one of the finest
examples of app development out there today.

Facebook
for
Android
Facebook for Android is lacking in features compared
to Facebook itself, but a recent update added Inbox
support to the Android app, finally allowing its users to
communicate in almost real time. The app’s fast and
stable, with a simplicity that reminds you of the old
days when using Facebook used to be bearable.

Astro
File
Manager
ASTRO is nothing more than a Windows-style file
explorer, but if you’re into tinkering and directly
installing Android APK files yourself, it’s essential to
stick something like this on your phone. It makes your
phone feel like a computer, and makes you feel like
you’re in charge of it. ASTRO launched a Pro version
recently but still exists with an ad supported free
version.

an accurate representation of the stars and planets
on your screen. Point your phone at the sky, then
learn what constellations are visible and if that’s a
UFO or just Venus. Google Sky Mapeven works

Google
Goggles
Google Goggles lets you take photos and have
Google analyse them and come back with a search
results page for what it thinks you’re looking at.
However, the app’s main use is as a QR code
reader, which lets you scan barcodes for quick
access to apps and whatever data people choose to
embed in the odd little data squares.
