Anyone know of a good astonomy website for seeing stars and planets?

At the beginning of the month it was so cool in the morning before the sun rose to see Venus with the naked eye. Daughter got a telescope for CHristmas and I'd like to use it some with her.

Anyone recommend a website where you can put in like your zipcode and it will help you locate stars, planets, space station based on time of day?

What kind of phone do you have? If it's Android, this is pretty cool (although it seems like it works better / worse depending on the specific device):

I'm sure there is an iPhone equivalent, just not sure what it is.

My uncle owns a few acres of land behind his house in Rhode Island and you can see so many stars with the naked eye. So cool. I can look at em all night.

I saw this picture the other day. The boat was stuck on a sandbar which allowed for a long exposure (30 sec). Someday.....
