As many readers of The Next Web have probably noticed over the last week or so, Lawrence and I have been writing about what is widely considered to be the hottest topic in tech right now – location.
We are happy to announce the launch today of TNWLocation, which will be dedicated to covering what we term “the social location graph”, and which Lawrence and I will be co-editors.
Whether it’s covering check-in apps such as Foursquare and Gowalla, or geo API services, or good old Google Maps, we’ll offer a continuous focus on this channel about where this space is today and where it is going.
Before joining The Next Web, Lawrence and I had been co-authoring another location-focused blog called Location Meme. In our time away from writing, Lawrence is the CEO and Founder of ratings site RateItAll as well as new white label check-in app DoubleDutch, and I am a tech (especially geo-tech) marketing consultant.
