Posts Tagged “Social Networks”

Brightkite, the "location-based social network" has been getting quite a bit of buzz lately. I like and use it because you can check in at your current location, and have that location broadcasted in one of several ways. Posting your location to Twitter is something I am seeing more and more of.

I was reading their blog this morning and saw an update they labeled as "notifications for your ego". You can now be notified via e-mail or text message if someone uses your username in a post. While it might be good for your ego, it is a cool way to keep up to date on what is being said about you.

Brightkite is still invite-only, but I have a few invitations. Just send me your e-mail address and I will get you hooked up.
