For the paranoid: Homeland Security Live Tile shows current threat level

Apps with Live Tiles are always fun, so here's one from Touchality, makers of that popular Foursquare app on Windows Mobile.

It shows the Homeland Security info like threat level (color codes, though we abandoned that though) as well as airport statuses via lookup. It also has links to the Department of Homeland Security websites for quick reference. But really, it's the color coded Live Tile that's kind of cool here--even though it is set to expire in April.
