BrightKite allows you to connect with your friends locally or around the world.  BrightKite is quite simple to use. First you need an invite. If you’d like one, comment on this post and I’ll send you an invite. Once you get an account on BrightKite, there are some instructions to follow on how to set up your phone. That’s when the fun begins!

BrightKite integrates with Twitter. So everytime you check-in at a location or post an image, it will reflect on Twitter. People that follow you on Twitter, whether family or friends, will know exactly where you’ve been and what you’ve been doing from the pictures you submitted. I recommend getting an invite and trying the service out for yourself. Especially if you’re in the Social Media space.
