In the beginning, Apple created iPod, and it was good. You could play your music on it wherever you went and there was great sound, manageable size, and plenty of space.

Then Apple said, "let there be Contacts and Calendars", and so you could access your friends, family, and events from your iPod, very nice.

Now, some enterprising folks are continuing to work on new ways to use your iPod. An article on MacMegaSite points us to Cliché, a company that has crossed the iPod with Web Services and is delivering movie times, stock quotes, and weather forecasts.
