Places

Our mobile mashup Places has been updated.

Twitter Places, Facebook Places, Google Places etc. Everybody is implementing Places service nowadays. So we simply could not be out of that movement. They left no choice for us. It is much easier to implement it rather than explain why not. So with the help of Foursquare, YQL and Geo Messages we build the following mobile mashup:

QR code
http://places.linkstore.ru (it is a mobile link).
Also you can use QR code above for loading that URL.


It works on any mobile phone with HTML5 browser (iPhone, Android, Samsung etc.). Lets you see nearby places, see info in Google, Bing or Yandex (russian search engine) as well as share your location info via Email, SMS, Twitter and Facebook. You can share your location info in the form of place, rather than latitude/longitude pair. Service does not require any authorization and does not reveal your private data. And if Foursquare's data is not enough you can switch to Facebook places right from this mashup.
