Favorite Apps from Corporate Sponsors 2011

A glass of water

This is one of my favorite branded/corporate apps. It was designed by Toyota to help make you a better driver. The concept is simple. Put your iPhone on the dashboard of your car and drive. It calculates your fuel consumption against the amount of water you have “spilled” The less water you spill while driving, the better your fuel consumption. A sharp turn or sudden acceleration not only uses up more gas, but it also causes more water to spill out of the virtual cup. I’m not sure if the correlation has been scientifically proven, but I’ve found this tool helps keep me aware of my driving especially in the jungles of LA traffic. Highly Recommend!
