SheGeeks: Why Location Based Social Networks Need To Offer Something Different

  • BryanG · 1 year ago
    I thought this social network seemed pretty interesting, it's like Flickr but all the photos are organized according to the location the pictures are taken.
    http://www.panoramio.com/

    Seems like a pretty cool way to document a location, again the user isn't necessarily the focus the location is.

    Have you checked out the Nokia location based service called plazes? Seems to offer some interesting benefits however not yet available with mobile clients like whirrl.com.

    Confused, when you say "could care less" do you mean care a lot and therefore have scope to care less or do you mean "couldn't care less" as in don't care at all and therefore could not possibly care any less than that? Could you please clarify as this doesn't make a lot of sense without knowing that. Thanks.

    Hi everyone.

    A few days ago, I was surfing the web and I found out a project that works over most mobile phones which lets you know where your friends are in real time and update your status in twitter. It´s called Dimdix.

    On their website they say you don´t need a GPS system to detect your location. Does anyone know how this works?

    I´m using a Motorola L7 and amazingly it detected my location.

    I cannot stop thinking of all the things I could do with it.

    If anyone wants to take a look you can go here

    Thanks,

    Regards,
