Skyhook announced a partnership with another Android app today: What’s That? by Fuzzy Squirrel Software.  What’s That? is an indispensible tool for adventurers. The app determines location and tells users about landmarks, stores, and other objects in the area, from coffee shops to mountains in the distance.  It searches multiple databases including Wikipedia for this useful information about a user’s surroundings. The app can be downloaded today in the Android Marketplace for $1.

Skyhook is now partnering with Android apps more and more frequently, as an increased number of developers begin to see the benefits of the technology and its stark distinction from native Android location.

A good testimony to this distinction is shown in a New York Times article from this week.  The article simply echoes sentiments expressed by countless Android developers and users worldwide: http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/03/30/google-phone-gps-misses-by-a-mile/?emc=eta1
