We are starting this week with a new selection of new Android applications. This week highlighted an RPN Calculator, Crossword game, Android VNC, City Audioguides, and a Social rating system for your contacts and locations.
Android RPN Calculator
Android RPN Calculator is an experimental application which aims to implement an RPN-based calculator. Read the definition of RPN before using the calculator if you don’t it, otherwise you might find it very confusing to use. Currently many buttons still not implemented but many already working. So you can get the apk and give it a try.

KudoStar, social rating system
KudoStar is a mobile social rating system that connects your contacts and favorite locations. People and places accumulate positive and negative Kudostars (KudoScore), with relevant sound, images, and video while keeping the user interface intuitive and simple to use. KudoStar then uses this information and ties it in with not only other Android phones but also your social networking sites. KudoStar will also utilize Facebook’s F8 and Google’s opensocial platforms to virally spread the collected data to a multitude of users. Tying Google Maps, and v:social’s media platforms KudoStar will allow a vast array of viewing options for the data that is collected.
