My Tracks Android app for T-Mobile G1 Android-powered phones
My Tracks Android application for T-Mobile G1 and other Android-powered phones, lets you records tracks of outdoor activities using the phone's built-in GPS. It shows these tracks on a map and presents live statistics, including an elevation profile. It also lets you share your activities with friends and the world using Google Maps, as well as archive your training history with Google Docs. By default this is the Gmail application, but if you have installed other applications that can send messages, there will be more options, explain Google LatLong Blog.
To download My Tracks to your G1, go to Android Market and search for “My Tracks” website.

I just read the article and watched the video on the new "my tracks" app! looks really cool! I have been using the app CardioTrainer for a couple months and then sharing by exporting into my maps (CT provides an exportable kml that you can send to my maps -- same place as my tracks). Just wondering if anybody has used both apps? I feel like CardioTrainer is more for actual training and my tracks is just a GREAT standard gps tracking app. They're both in the Lifestyles section of the market. What do you think?!
here's a link to the CardioTrainer page incase you want to give that a try too!
