HP developers release their first webOS app
HP -- who recently acquired Palm -- hasn't been shy about stating how much they like webOS. They've also said their developers are working away at creating new apps for the under-appreciated mobile OS. And now, they've taken the wraps off their very first submission to the App Catalog.Brace yourselves...It's WORLD TIME for webOS!
Okay, in all seriousness the app looks good and functions well. It provides a nice, easy way to quickly find out what time it is anywhere in the world -- just poke the map. Though actually, you can accomplish the same thing by Googling "time in Jakarta," for example.
I don't know about you, but I was kind of hoping their first app would be something a little more kick-ass. We're trying to generate excitement here, right, HP? Here's hoping they've got something awesome in the works. I love my Pre, and I'd really like to see HP do amazing things with webOS.

It's an ok app...I would give it a 3 out 4. It would have been nicer if I can click on the world map and it would me the time, rather than me choosing the time from a drop down list.

Maybe this is just a "hello world" that can actually be pushed out? I'm sure HP isn't full of useless devs.
I'm also taking DLS off my RSS feed as of now. All I see is complaining about stupid things. It wont be missed.
