-- Click on a "Post to " feature. If you're a Twitter user, you can click on a "Post to Twitter" feature in the Buddy Beacon Facebook application setup.

-- Go hiking. One of the Where widgets is called Fugawi. Unlike ordinary maps you're likely to use on a cell phone, which show streets and business names, Fugawi shows topographical information, which is great when you're hiking, backpacking or camping. It also overlays streets and roads, but it doesn't give you their names. Still, if you're lost in the woods, it can help direct you to the nearest "exit."

-- Find the nearest . A special Starbucks Finder shows you all nearby Starbucks listed in order of which are closest to you.

-- Get Where tips and freebies. Insider Alerts asks you to broadly tell what "generation" you're in ("love child" from the '60s, "gen xer" from the '70s, "I want my MTV" from the '80s, "dot-com or dot-bust" from the '90s and also your gender.) You'll then get occasional SMS messages with location-based information.

-- Amuse yourself. Quite a few widgets are just fun and a little goofy. For example, a widget called Digging to China tells you where you would emerge if you dug straight down, through the center of the Earth and came back out on the other side.
