Neil: You can write a client for Symbian / S60 on Nokia for your new N95 :) (but I'd wait until the server is a bit more mature). - Andrew Perry

kind of like http://graffit.io/ for the iphone - Richard Akerman

Thanks for pointing me to Graffitio. From what I can tell, Graffitio doesn't allow you to 'tag' Walls where conversations are occuring ... so while it's loosely similar in that it's a social geolocation app, Graffitio seems quite different in intention (although I don't have an iPhone to check it out, so I'm just going on what I've gleaned from their blog). - Andrew Perry

I happened to read this blog today (yeah, very late I know). I don't have an iPhone or android, so I don't actually understand much. But it did remind me of an idea I had a few months ago. It would be cool to be able to tag geographic locations with needs for volunteer work. E.g., tag an area "needs a few people to volunteer for a Saturday to fix playground." etc. With enough users (i.e. a ton of users), it would be a cool way of making it easy for people to find nearby & suitable volunteer work. - Steve Koch

That's another good idea to add to the list Steve. I'm hoping to make it generic enough that things along those lines should be possible. For 'flashmob' organization of volunteer work, I can imagine that social networks (including twitter) may work better (eg, see this post by Don Park about how twitter has guided his weekend activities http://bit.ly/Q6q5b ), although tagging locations to indicate where events are happening would be a good complement. - Andrew Perry

Development has slowed in the last few months, but it hasn't stalled (I started this project while I was still not sure if I'd have a job at the start of this year ... then got my fellowship). I'm thinking that Occyd could feed tagged locations into Twitter using the LL:lat,lon convention for locations, and #hashtags. Just need to establish a way to prevent it becoming too spammy. - Andrew Perry
