    Just wondering if anyone can recommend any travel Apps for using when travelling around SE Asia? I'm bringing my iPad with me.

    Obviously the Travelfish ones are a given! Aside from that I'm thinking Skype, Air Asia and WordPress for updating the blog - any other recommendations?

    forgotyourphone , its a site for backing up all important information e.g - contacts, and appointments ect. incase you loose your ipad you will be able to access it through another computer, phone ect.. this is just incase your ipad is broken, stolen or lost. i used it when i went travelling .. it was brill!

    For Malaysia, I suggest MyTeksi or TaxiMonger to help you get taxis that uses meter in Kuala Lumpur (the city is known for unethical taxi drivers).

    When you hail a taxi this way, you'll be charged RM 2 extra but you'll get an estimated fare beforehand.

    Hi me and my friend are in the process of creating a free app that allows users to find the details of private bus/boat operators between any cities in Southeast Asia as well as the corresponding border-crossing details if the route you are taking requires border-crossing. I wonder if any of you might be interested?

    Do leave me your email address below
    http://beta.explorya.com

    I will contact you once our app is completed. It will be also interesting if you tell me what other problems you encounter that you would like a solution for.
