Medieval Astrolabe

The clock was inspired by the astonishing astronomical clock (Orloj) in Prague, which is a major tourist attraction to this day. Dated back to 1410 AD the clock in Prague was a technical and mathematical masterpiece of that time. Two hundred years later it inspired astronomer Johannes Kepler to write his famous laws. And now the clock enhances the imagination and thirst for knowledge even six hundred years later.

At the Nordkapp

The clock travels in your pocket all around the world, both literally and imaginary. At each destination Astrock displays the sky as the original Orloj would, as if it had been built for that very location. The next snapshot reveals the sky taken at the Nordkapp, the northernmost point of Europe, where polar day and night occur. The light blue colors reveal that the sun is never high and the soft yellow light known from photography as magic hour, can last for a third of the day.

Everyday use

However, Astrock is intended for everyday life, as the original Orloj used to be. Here are a few of the interesting things it can tell us. It is around a quater to nine pm and the sun sets. It becomes dark at half past nine pm, but actual night won’t start until almost a quater to midnight. The dawn is as early as ten minutes to five. The Moon, currently waxing crescent, is floating above the western horizon just about to set. It is still quite light for planet observations, but in a few moments it gets dark and Saturn will be visible with some luck, a little ahead of the Moon. Within an hour we might also see the rise of Jupiter, which will be low in the sky for almost the entire night.

Use LocalEats to find deals at the best restaurants in New York City

LocalEats, the iPhone’s premier dining guide application, has launched a groundbreaking new feature for restaurant goers in New York. More than 100 of the best restaurants in Manhattan are offering unprecedented mobile savings directly to customers using LocalEats.

Available for the iPhone 3G, the new iPhone 3GS and BlackBerry Storm, users simply pull up the mobile offers on LocalEats — which range from a percentage off the final bill to free dessert or hors d’oeuvres with purchase — and present them to their waiters before ordering. Café des Artistes, for example, is offering 10% off the final bill. Many of New York’s finest restaurants and foodie favorites have signed on, including The Four Seasons, Daniel, Babbo, Rosa Mexicano and dozens of others across the culinary landscape. A full list of restaurants is available here.

“The LocalEats mobile app lets restaurant owners communicate directly with their customers, offering dining discounts, prix fixe specials and new menu items — the kind of special offers that cause foodies to change course for their evening out,” says Bill King, whose Magellan Press has for a decade published “Where the Locals Eat” dining guides, and who introduced the LocalEats application on the iPhone last year. “The iPhone has revolutionized how people find great restaurants and make reservations, and the LocalEats couponing technology is an extension of that breakthrough.”

LocalEats has a commanding presence in the mobile world and has remained near the top of the list of iPhone paid travel apps since its launch last year. It is currently the No. 1 paid dining app and the No. 2 overall paid travel app. LocalEats management credits the “Near Me” feature of the app, which utilizes GPS technology, for generating this growth. In March, more than 21,000 mobile phone users within three miles of Central Park hit “Near Me” to find a restaurant in their vicinity. Two months later, that number jumped to over 87,000.

“As an iPhone user and a chef, I see the great benefits of the LocalEats application,” says Terrance Brennan, chef and proprietor of Picholine, Artisanal and Bar Artisanal, the latter two of which have special offers available via LocalEats. “The iPhone community is expanding and so is the reach and appeal of LocalEats. This helps us put the Artisanal and Picholine brands in the hands of diners any time, any where, which is exactly what we want. It’s serious diners who are interested in the application and search its database. And we’re all about serious diners.”

The LocalEats approach to restaurant selections differs greatly from the ubiquitous user-generated rankings found in most online food applications. Instead of an online democracy where all votes are equal, LocalEats values the expert opinions of foodies — those picky, experienced diners whose stomachs growl loudest. Restaurants featured on LocalEats are hand-picked by a passionate group of discerning researchers and writers, led by a veteran food journalist and a veteran professional cook and caterer. To arrive at top picks, the team tests selections, taps the minds of top food critics, surveys local foodies and pays attention to who’s winning local and national awards. LocalEats simply finds the very best restaurants in the city, and the best by neighborhood, too.

The LocalEats iPhone application costs 99 cents to download and updates regularly without charge. LocalEats for the BlackBerry Storm is $2.99. As other companies offer touchscreen phones, LocalEats plans to create compatible applications.
