Plazes: Verschränkung von cyberplace und realem Ort
philo, 14:28h
Via Randgänge:
Plazes
" Plazes is the first global location-aware interaction and geo-information system, connecting you with the people and Plazes in your area and all over the world. It is the navigation system for your social life.
Plaze = Location + People
A Plaze is a physical location with a local network - private or public, wired or unwired. A Plaze constitutes of the information about the actual location like pictures, comments and mapping information, as well as the people currently online at that Plaze.
What you can use Plazes for
* Discover Plazes anywhere
Discover Plazes in your vicinity or anywhere else in the world. You can use Plazes to find specific kinds of locations like hotspots, restaurants, offices based on your current whereabouts or individual search criteria. Because Plazes is not just a dull database you can also browse your way through Plazes all over the world and have a peep. This is where the fun begins.
* Hook up with people nearby
The "people radar" allows you to see people at your own Plaze or within a given radius. Learn about people at the same trade fair that you are at or see who's at your favorite restaurant this very moment. Find people that share the same interest or match certain criteria using the advanced people search. The built-in messaging tool allows you to get in touch.
* Stay in touch with your friends
Plazes allows you to invite your friends or give people you hooked up with this status of special trust. By broadcasting your current location to your friends you let them know your whereabouts and vice versa. Of course you can just set yourself "invisible" and explicitely decide what kind of information about yourself is for everybody and what is for your friends' eyes only. With Plazes you are always in control of your data."

Da tät ich gern mit.
Zumal ich - literarisch - in meinem Anderswelt-Projekt seit "Thetis.Anderswelt" an etwas Ähnlichem arbeite.
