social networking 2.0 on the iPhone
there’s already a lot of buzz about the iPhone becoming a great gaming platform (Quake 3 running on iPhone). now TechCrunch is reporting on a stealth startup working on a location-based social networking app:
The startup behind the new application won’t let me disclose their name yet. But the application is awesome. It shows you everyone around you who has it installed on an iPhone (default privacy is set to off, but can be changed). Users can scroll through nearby users, and set filters for men, women or age ranges. If you find someone interesting you can pull up their profile and ping them. If they respond you can start a chat, on the phone or in person. Of course, they can also choose to block you.
