Try Life360. While family-oriented only in name and marketing at the moment, we are cross-platform on iOS and Android and also have a Latitude importer. http://www.life360.com/latitude http://www.life360.com/latitude We're also working on some new features that will make the app less "family oriented" and more universal for everyone.

I think there integrating location finding into google+. Its not a great answer, because I'm not sure how location sharing works in google+, but under preferences you can make you location available. Then when people click on your profile they can see where you are. As someone who used to use latitude occasionally to get together and find friends (fairs, small towns)I think I'll miss it.

Depends on use case. Location history, you can just keep using Google Maps. Telling others where you are: http://www.glympse.com/ http://www.glympse.com/, but that is more for a specific period of time rather than passively sharing it as Latitude did.

I have an app 'locacha' that lets you share your location with friends in a chat room.

It's in the blog post, location sharing has moved to Google+. Here's the link from the post: https://support.google.com/plus/answer/2998354?p=plus_location&rd=1 https://support.google.com/plus/answer/2998354?p=plus_locati...

Quick plug for something we're working on that's related: chronos, launched on Android this week http://bit.ly/chronos-android http://bit.ly/chronos-android (iOS next week: http://www.getchronos.com http://www.getchronos.com) We passively track how you spend your time – you don't have to do anything, and it lets you know where you’ve gone, with whom, and breaks your time into categories (work, sleep, exercise, home, social, etc.). -charlie
