Three Minds On Digital Marketing @ Organic

If you've read any of my previous posts, you know I'm a big proponent of location-based services. Bright Kite is the latest in a long line of startups aiming to bring location-specific services to the masses. At its core Bright Kite is a location-aware social recommendation service. Users are encouraged to define their oft frequented locations, once at a defined location users can view a placefeed - think location-specific twitter - as well as, post notes, images, and check in. All of the site's functionality is also available through their excellent iPhone web app.
 
All in all it's a pretty slick service with tons of potential. It improves on at lest two very popular services [can you guess which?] and, if it can attract a large enough user base, might give them a run for their money. The other thing Bright Kite has going for it is that anything location-specific should be a breeze to monetize.
