Website of the Week: Glympse.com

Glympse

This is my new favorite App. Last week my cousin offered to give me a ride to the airport and when I texted him to see how far away he was from my house, he sent me this a link. Since it was so slow to open up on my Blackberry, I forwarded it to my laptop and there it was… a Google map with his exact location and the speed at which he was traveling. I thought, “what a perfect app for travelers to know where their ride is!” Glympse’s tag line says it all – “Share where you are” -and you can have all kinds of privacy settings so only the person(s) you want to know where you are can see your location. And the best part – it’s free. Don’t you wish all car/busses/trains/planes supplied this? No more “I’ll be there in five minutes” lies.
