Combining Real-time Location Based Services, Social Networking and now Location Aware Chat, Mologogo continues to break new ground for mobile apps. Mologogo also serves as a dirt-cheap tracking system, so go ahead and fauxjack something."</i><br /><br /><img src=http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/westfall-20060626-mologogo_wm5.gif><br /><br />Mologogo looks like an interesting system for those of you who want to willingly track yourself and post your movements online. I don't think I'd want to do this on a daily basis, but I think it would be fun if I was visiting a city and wanted to see where I wandered throughout the day (or let local friends find me), that would be a pretty cool way to do it! Looks like their service isn't completely out of beta yet, but the clients should be available for download for both WM 5 and Java based.

Actually, their service isn't out of alpha yet. ;)

But it still looks interesting. I'm just not much of an alpha/beta software user anymore, so I'll wait a while to try this. Likely until I get a BT GPS. ;)

I dislike the fact that they require an internal or external GPS system. They should have the location triangulated via cell towers, a feature one of the "phone gps" application already uses (forgot the name of that piece of software).

CellTrack?

It's also available for PPC, but not sure how active the developent is lately.
