A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business.

Summary

For mobile devices that support location-based services, create a service that allows you to selectively publish your location to a group of friends and receive alerts when they come within a certain proximity. This improves the chances of a spontaneous encounters with friends when you're out. Services like Dodgeball and Twitter have rocketed in popularity confirming that a) people love publishing & consuming info about their activities with friends via mobile devices and b) they're willing to pay for it in the form of text messaging fees.



By tapping into LBS, Feelerz removes the need to explicitly publish your location via SMS and instead you can turn it on/off when you want to be found. A web interface allows you to manage your friend circle online and set the proximity range. You can enter credentials for existing social networking or dating sites to seed your contacts list. There would be a free version limited to x number of friends and a paid premium version that's unlimited.
