Wow..who would though that some applications in your smart phones could save your life?

Well, I only have 'Waktu Solat 2010' application in my old SE K550i. It's really incredible when an application in your smart phone could become a savior to your own life.

I've read wired.com about the story when a man survived the recent Haiti earthquake just because of his Pocket First Aid and CPR application in his iPhone. He uses that application to teach him on how to treat his wound and stops the bleeding he suffers, and even tell him not to fell asleep while waiting for rescue since it could made him unconscious later on that could even invite his death!(read more about the story at http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/01/haiti-survivor-iphone/)

So I think it might be useful to have some vast, good & relevant applications in your smart phones...who knows, it could save your life from dying because you have lost track in the forest for a whole weeks! Turn your smart phone and use GPS to track North (or it would be good if you have the maps of that particular place!) - just make sure your smart phone has enough battery-juice to do so ;p
