    The next big thing - this is better than MySpace

    This is one of my friends new ventures, it's an instant messenger that uses location to find people near you. The Chicago Sun Times just did an article on it yesterday and interviewed my friend Paul, check it out and download it. It kicks ass.

              outstanding idea. to be honest, that kind of stuff scares the shit out of me. GPS in the wrong hands can be dangerous. something about the ability to be able to find a persons exact location at any time is very frightening indeed.

                                          You should have it before too long I would imagine.
