Gowalla on the iPhone (@Gowalla)

Erin — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 15:29:04 +0000

Gowalla is an excellent social app that allows you to check in to locations all around the world. In each location, you also have the opportunity to drop and pick up items to possibly become a founder of that location. It connects up to popular social media networks also to share your location with others.

If you’d like to friend me (Erin Blaskie) on Gowalla, check out my profile here.
