Whrrl

interesting social software application using location + stories + shared input, using iPhone, twitter and facebook - and you can shake your iPhone to find out more at the end of the intro pages on the whrrl site. Needless to say that it didn't work when I shook my laptop. Trying to think how and when I would bother to use whrrl in daily life - but I don't have an iPhone and I haven't read all the details about whrrl yet. In our last ethics discussion we were looking at location + data and possible implications for designers of linking your software to facebook - when you lose control of data i.e. can't erase the user data trails, so I was interested to see this appear.
