After the News of Apple tracking your iPad, iPhone 3G and regularly tracks the location of your iOS device and records the co-ordinates along with timestamp in a hidden file, devs Alasdair Allan and Pete Warren created a wonderful OS X app called iPhoneTracker which allowed you to view said information from your Mac.

According to ModMyi site, Developer Tom Zickel (jailbreakers know him as db42, author of tweaks such as SBSchedule, SnapTap, and SpringSorter – he’s also on Twitter as @icebreak) has just released a Windows program called iOSTracker.NET which allows you to view this info on your Windows computer as well now

Tom Zickel description:

iOSTracker.Net displays the recorded location information from your iOS 4 Devices Backups on your computer that were done by iTunes.
This program is inspired by iPhoneTracker for Mac OS X and uses OpenHeatMap for displaying the locations on the OpenStreetMap infastructure.

iOSTracker.Net was coded by Tom Zickel (@icebreak).
No location information is recorded by the app itself, nor is it transmitted anywhere, the map downloads locally OSM map tiles and 2 JavaScript scripts and a Flash applet.

You can download the windows program at Zickel’s page for it, http://tom.zickel.org/iostracker

Jay Freeman aka Saurik posted a notice on the front page of Cydia citing an unfortunate problems plaguing no shortage of prominent digitat domains. Reddit, Quora, FourSquare, Hootsuite, the New York Times, ProPublica and Cydia. Raising some serious questions about the reliability of Amazon Web Services and all things cloud-related, as reported by ModMyi site.

ModMyi also state that Cydia pioneer Jay Freeman posted an update on Twitter regarding the unfortunate problem, “Amazon EC2 (which does host the primary Cydia website, purchasing, etc.) is currently experiencing severe issues: nothing I can do but wait,” he tweeted.

Again Jay Freeman updated the following message on the Cydia.

“Amazon EC2, which hosts Cydia’s internal website, has been having extreme issues for – 40 hours. This outage affects the ability to purchase paid products, the Theme Center, and Manage Account. I (saurik) have been sleeping in hour-and-a-half shifts since this outage began in order to keep a dialog open with Amazon “Premium Support” regarding this issue. Recently, enough access was recovered in order for me to modify the home page to add this message.”

“Unfortunately, Amazon’s status and ETAs have been confusingly vague and highly optimistic throughout the experience, causing me to be unable to make good decisions about disaster recovery choices. At this time, the latest news from Amazon AWS (as of two hours ago) was “that this will take 3-4 hours until full access is restored.” Meanwhile, Premium Support has asked engineering to prioritize recovering Cydia’s infrastructure. (For those interested in this sort of thing: this is the same Amazon EC2 outage that has been affecting other sites like reddit and foursquare.)”

According to money.cnn.com,”Amazon touts the way it links together many different data centers to protect customers from isolated failures. It promises to keep customers’ sites up and running 99.95% of the year, or it will shave 10% off customers’ monthly bills.”
