What's up in Hong Kong

Several websites and apps exists that allow Hong-Kong citizens and visitors alike to plan their daily activities.

1. Want to know more about your air pollution level? It's here:
 Hedley Environmental Index

and also here:
Air Quality Index

2. Want to check the local weather conditions and make sure a typhoon is not heading your way? Check out this source:
Hong Kong Observatory

3. Want to go from point A to point B using public buses? Here is a nice little app that will help you choose the right bus route: Citybus/NWFB Easy Rider

Easy Rider: Citybus & New World First Bus app

 This app is available for both Apple and Android based devices.

4. I also heard about an app allowing you to talk to Cantonese only speaking cab drivers, but since I have not tried it and I make a point of trying to communicate without always resolving to hand-held devices, I cannot vouch for its efficiency level.
