Networking at Lotusphere? IdoCheckin !
Over at IdoNotes (and sleep), top notch social networker Chris Miller is launching a brand new initiative for Lotusphere. By utilizing a location awareness service from Brightkite and mapping the most interesting locations and venues at Lotusphere, Chris and Martin have made it possible for 8000 Lotusphere attendees to easily locate each other in the chaos of lemmings looking for each other (and bars to hang out in).By "checking in" to locations by email or text messaging from your cell phone, you can not only let others know where YOU are, but also get information about who of your connections are close by. You can "join" your connections at locations and even post notes and photos related to locations.
Sounds like fun? Go read more about it here, and check the "How To" guides at IdoNotes.com, and when you're done, sign up - you know you want to! ;-)
Feel free to add me (username: "olufsphere") to your list, and perhaps we can get together in Orlando!
My prediction - this will be the most important announcement not on the agenda!
