PubCrawler Web App

My first mobile web app is PubCrawler. It finds pubs in your location automatically and can show you a route around them. Navigate from pub to pub and save the number of pints drunk in each. Crawls are saved for viewing later.
Its being developed in HTML, CSS 3.0 and JavaScript using Google Gears GeoLocation, Maps API, Local Search and dojo Toolkit. Google Gears is required. It works on:
- Android phones like the T-mobile G1
- Windows Mobile 6 with Opera Mobile 9.5 technology preview build (go to gears.google.com in the browser to install Gears)
- Firefox 3 with Google Gears installed (although the CSS 3.0 elements won’t look right)
- Google Chrome
On first visit a prompt will pop-up asking you if you trust the site to use Gears. If you don’t click the accept button it won’t work.
