Notes, thoughts, links, videos and photos posted by me, Frank Gruber, while living a digital nomadic life in search of the latest tech innovations.

I am building a company called TechCocktail.com, which offers tech startup events, news and resources.

I am also the co-founder of a product called Thankfulfor - download the iPhone app - Thankfulfor - Shiny Heart Ventures.

You may be familiar with my old blog Somewhat Frank which I maintained from 2005 to 2010. I've decided to keep things going over here now and also on Tech Cocktail. Thanks for stopping by.

Mobile Apps Go Hyper-Local - The Kojo Nnamdi Show

Kojo Nnamdi ShowI’ll be on the Kojo Nnamdi show on Tuesday, Aug 9, 2011 at 12:06 p.m. The show description is below. Be sure to listen in here: http://thekojonnamdishow.o​rg/shows/2011-08-09/mobile​-apps-go-hyper-local

Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have changed the way people make friends and network online. Now, a new wave of mobile apps is taking those changes into the “real world.” Apps like FourSquare and Google+ allow you to “check in” with friends and make plans in real-time. Companies like LivingSocial and Groupon are using geolocation data to offer you deals based on where you are. Tech Tuesday explores how new mobile apps are changing the way we shop and socialize.
