It would be nice if you could check-in via an email message with an attached cell phone photo that has been embedded with lat/lng from the users location.
I'd like to request more invites; I'm trying to get a strong group of local Brightkiters going at Oberlin College. I'm curious to see how the last week of school and following diaspora will affect a Brightkite community.
OK, I'm getting *really* popular around here cause I had invites... Now I'm out, and no one will play with me. Can I have a few more? It's kinda like my mom hanging pork chops around my neck when I was a kid so the dogs would play with me, huh? B-))
Motivation: After a user signs up with an email address, they're sent a confirmation email. That's one more email that needs to make it past a spam blocker, and one more hassle during the signup process.
Feature: Check to see if the email they registered with matches the email associated with the activation code, and don't send them a confirm code if it does. In order to create a consistent user experience it's best to still send them an email letting the user know that they're registration process is complete for the login name used (a handy reminder if they later forget it).
May I please have some invites? Pretty Please? There are not many people in here from my area. I also may get beat up when I tell them I was only given one invite!
may i have more invites pretty please with a cherry on top? i'll be talking about brightkite on my podcast http://pushmyfollow.com ;) as many as you can spare please! thank you!
I'd like to be able to check into a location (placename) and at the same time post a note from the Web UI (and later on via twitter and direct clients)
eg I'm @home just chillin'
[of course working out a way to include @home in a Tweet without sending a message to a user "home" might be an issue]
