GPS based phone applet
Like to see a phone applet (WM5,WM6,iPhone,Nokia) that takes your GPS coordinates from the phone and posts your location to brightkite!
I’m confident, excited

Inappropriate?why use this with GPS only? Google Maps can get your location without GPS, just triangulisation (or something like that) of your signal. its not as acurate as GPS, but it does the trick.2 Comments

This is one of the best points

I think it would be good if it could locate our closest place mark with this, but if we had 2 very close locations it might think we are at a different location than we are actually at -
I agree that this shouldn't be limited to GPS. The use of cell towers is a good idea, but not for auto-check-in. At least allow me to check in and use Cell Towers to find recent locations near me so I don't have to manually type in the address all the time.

Inappropriate?I'm using www.mologogo.com on my WM6 Blackjack II. It announces my location to Twitter on a schedule i set up. Also sends to FireEagle.com. Would be nice to either have a direct feed to BK, or to have BK consume the FireEagle location feed.
So, this service already exists...
I’m Oh Yea...

Inappropriate?I agree totally with this. Hopefully with the new IPHONE about out, and they have already said BK would have an app just for that, that they wouldn't forget the rest of us users on WM, or Symbian etc. Initially something simple to systematically send coordinates, working its way to a full fledged app. Thanks for your hard work BK Team.
I’m confident

Inappropriate?I think this would work best if it was available as a native app for all available platforms (Palm OS 5, Windows Mobile, Symbian Series 60), but for all other platforms as a java app (similar to Twibble).
I’m hopeful
