Marble - open source, routing-capable GPS and mapping

Maemo 5 suffers from a lack of good, offline, routing-capable mapping applications. There are a number of contenders, including Nokia's own Ovi Maps. But, in your editor's opinion, only Sygic may be approaching the capabilities of Navicore's Wayfinder on Maemo 4 (and that was derided at the time); but at too high a cost to justify replacing the N810 currently working as his GPS whilst driving around Europe on holiday. Dennis Nienhüser has announced the release of Marble, a globe-oriented application which may improve the situation. Dennis says, Marble is a Virtual Globe whose mobile version features advanced routing capabilities. Key features: Online and offline routing (worldwide); GPS tracking and route guidance; Many different map themes. Marble does not use accelerated 3D for its globe, but is speedy nonetheless. It's currently available in Extras-testing for those willing to balance risk, early access to software and a commitment to feedback issues and vote accordingly.

pwnitter - session sniffing and hijacking demonstration

Simon L R has a little write-up of Tobias Mueller's pwnitter sidejacking tool for spoofing Twitter users on your network: “Sidejacking” as it’s been called, a method of snarfing and re-using session cookies, is now publicly available for your mobile phone and Twitter. If you didn’t feel like hacking up FireSheep to get it working on your device, chewing over 40MB of space and wreaking havoc on your dependencies – well, look no further than a nice packaged binary called Pwnitter, by Tobias Mueller of GNOME fame. pwnitter is in Extras-devel, so care should be taken if installing it to not upgrade any other packages. As it also operates on a fairly low-level, extra care should be taken. Warnings about complying with your local laws should be taken as read.
