"Location aware" is the most over hyped nonsense since tag clouds IMHO. Sick of it.

- stcredzero 18y agoLocation is significant, period. It may be over-hyped. But so was the web on several occasions. Sometimes something gets over-hyped because it has tremendous potential to begin with.
- axod 18y agoIt's significant if you want to find something. That need is already pretty much fulfilled. You can't just tack "location aware" on to existing products and make them out to be revolutionary, unless they really are revolutionary and satisfy as specific need. It's like people have been given a new toy - location, and are tacking it onto everything. Like a web-designer who has just found the <blink> tag.
