How about more integration and a new API?

This is a great service. There are just a couple more things I want to see.

I was going to say better twitter integration, but I just figured out how to do it. So not that. I want to see more ways to find friends, like gmail contacts, facebook friends, myspace, etc. Perhaps an API (if you haven't made one yet that I missed) so that it can be integrated with websites and programs. Perhaps even more in-depth integration with social networking sites than I mentioned.

And more invites. More invites = good. Assuming, of course, your servers can handle it. Don't want the same thing happen here that happened to twitter ^_^

I’m happy

Hi Spencer. We are working on easier ways to find friends. Expect to see these friend features appearing sometime soon.

We have an API. We are testing it and will release it publicly very soon. Are you looking to write something that uses it?

Our architecture is quite different than Twitter so more invites should not be a problem. However we are still squashing bugs during the beta and are somewhat controlling the growth while we fix stuff.

We will be opening Brightkite up publicly within the next month or two. If you need some invites email me at [brady at brightkite dot kom]

this is one of the best points

Excellent. I have been thinking about writing an iPhone app for it, though it was just a thought, I may not have time to. Good luck with your testing ^_^ if you want/need help, feel free to contact me [sjos0001 at gmail dot com]
