Subscribers of this service get SMS alerts whenever their friends are in a close proximity.

Whether you are young or old, if you are fun most of your meet-ups are unplanned. Sometimes you just bump in to a couple of friends at the mini-golf and start a party right there. However, it is really hard to keep track of where all your friends are. It’s even harder to know if any of them are nearby which makes bumping in to them really hard.

Once you subscribe to this service you will get SMS alerts whenever your friends are in close proximity. The location information of all subscribers of this service is regularly updated and alerts are sent to those present in each other’s proximity.
