I have a Master’s Degree in Interactive Telecommunications so I get a lot of calls to help people with their technical systems. These calls are mostly from my Mom wanting to watch TV and they mostly result from her not understanding the universal remote. My life on the family AV squad would be helped if I could see what she sees when she calls. I thought it would be nice to give her a hat with a camera in it.

Inauguration Report (IR09) for Android
I just published this app today as part of the http://inaugurationreport.com effort… read on for more info:
Inauguration Report is the official Android app for the 2009 Inauguration Report collaborative journalism project. Produced by NPR.org, CBS News and American University, Inauguration Report is a news initiative to gather stories from the public surrounding the January 20 presidential inauguration of Barack Obama.
Inauguration Report lets you send your own reports about the inauguration and
share it with the public online. NPR.org and CBS News will also incorporate public contributions in its coverage of the inauguration, so you may be contacted by them if they decide to use your submission. You can submit reports in the form of text, photos or audio.
Results of the project will be posted online at NPR.org, CBSNews.com and InaugurationReport.org. It will be added to a collection of submissions from other iPhone users, as well as people on Twitter, Flickr and other online communities.

On the phone it’s better to focus on one task. From what I’ve seen, the best iPhone applications do one thing and do it well. Supporting URL schemes in your application makes that single task more attractive to other developers and users. It leads to what my friend Daniel Jalkut has aptly called the “Un-Coda-fication” of iPhone apps.
