Brightkite Who wants an invitation? Dmax was kind enough to invite me to Brightkite.com, and I think it allows users 3 invitations per day to pass on. Would anyone like one? If so, please post your email address and we'll share the love.

I've found it to be more stable, with a few extra features than Twitter.
Picture posting and location features are the most obvious. Me likey.
BrianEnigma's another of "us" using it so far, too.

I'm looking at the website...it seems interesting but I am not sure I completely understand it. Is it only for phones?
^^ Thank you

So uh, it's some WAP MySpace sort of thing, a little Twitter-ish, that is supposed to enable to you interact with people physically near you...
Or you can just say "Hello" to the person standing beside you.
Silly me.

Thanks for the input. You're right. That was silly of you to do.

Well if you don't wanna, you don't hafta.
There are quite a few folks around here who are on Twitter, which Brightkite interfaces with. Twitter's been so flaky lately that it's almost more annoying to try to use it than it is to quit it.
