Follow Me! on Facebook lets you integrate google geolocation technology with your favorite social networking engine. 

On 11 Feb 2009 Google launches Google Latitude, a technology which promises to enable GPS-like features on any device. A couple of days later we guys at Cubeba successfully integrates such technology with Facebook and, as time goes by, Follow Me! users count is exceptionally growing.

What is Follow Me?

" Follow Me!" is a Facebook application which enable anyone to geo-tag himself on a map and to share the same map with your friends, whatever they want to share their position or not.

Follow Me is available in two flavours: desktop browser and mobile. By using Follow Me mobile friends can track real-time position and share hyperlocal  search. You don't want to ask anymore for nearest pizza, because Follow Me is ready with an answer.

Advantages

With GPS-like features going to the mass hyperlocal search will spread anywhere. Integrated searches let users to be warned about near friends, special offers and opportunities.

There's more: it's a brand new way to share information online. Until now one big answer has been written in internet, and the question was "WHAT". From now on everyone is able to provide a much more vibrant answer, "WHERE" answer. 

How does it work?

Geolocation use all possible data to geo-tag a source: wireless, wired, gsm connections. Follow Me data infrastructure, along with Facebook environment, provide an easy to use, intuitive, application to browse your friends by map: where they are, what are they doing? 

Do you want to search for a nice mid-way pizza between You and Your friends? just click on a button to get your answer, another click-away from a phone call to the restaurant.

There's more: imagine yourself walking downtown with your Follow Me enable mobile device. Your phone is aware of your needs, interests and hobbies: as you get in proximity with special events, store or even other people with similar interests as yours, a notice will be issued to let you take proper action such as enter the store to see special offers or meet a new friend at the cafè.

 Interesting, when will this be available?

Now, check this out.
