A new twist on the "find my phone" genera of apps comes out today from Lookout Labs called Plan B.� If the name didn't give it away, it's an application that tracks your phone that is installed remotely via the Android Market website after you've lost it.� Using it is simple:
- Realize that your phone isn't where it should be, and a quick look under the car seats or in the couch cushions doesn't find it
- On your computer, head to the Android Market website
- Install Plan B
- Check your email
Once installed, Plan B will start sending text messages via email to the address of your Google account, with handy Google Maps links to your phone's location.� This works even if GPS isn't enabled.� Then it's a matter of seeing where it is, and deciding how to retrieve it.� Pretty slick if you ask me, and it seemed to work perfectly on my Nexus S.� To give it a test or keep the link handy, follow the break for the download.�
