This gets really interesting if we overlay this concept on a workgroup and/or casual connections can be mapped at a social gathering - ie, a way to bring about a Nintendogs like meeting between 2 or more people through our phones. Could also be applied to a confernce situation where there could be a quick bluetooth ack sent back and forth to add people you meet to a temporary social network, so you can find them later if you have something else to share with them, or if you want to introduce them to someone else... So many other potential uses in this - I am just glad to start seeing real location based apps in the hands of real users instead of in the lab! Congrats to you and the team!
