THis is sooo coool. Turn your smartphone into a small radar, to see the nearby shipping. The service is called Vesseltracker, and uses the Layar augmented reality browser, to provide info on the nearby ships, distances to them, their movement directions etc. Brilliant. Brilliant. A small boat does not need to buy an expensive radar, just use Vesseltracker. I totally love it. Magical.
