But I hear you're into that kind of thing...

Joe hates Twitter.

I don't have an iPhone.

Looked at the site, I'll bite, invite!

Brightkite! (superstar!)

I'm on, same username as twitter.

The whole "check-in" "check-out" mechanism may be more effort than I can muster, but we shall see.

Considering I just recently signed up on Facebook, I'll probably get around to this in about two years from now.

Great looking bowl of clam chowder that guy's eating. This is either:

1) the intermediate step to acceptance of the government monitoring our every activity; or

2) how we'll catch Osama Bin Laden; or

3) both.

Ok, so this just allows you to join in on stuff the people already on your list are doing nearby or somewhere you can get to?

Sorry. YAWN.

This is completely and utterly duplicative of both twitter and, more closely, a great function of the LoT.

Yeah, but think of the fun of random strangers too...

You could post, "Come meet me in the second stall of the men's bathroom at the Texaco on the corner of 5th and Main." and see who shows up!
