How Big Will GeoLocating Be? BIG it appears

Thanks to a lead from Read, Write, Web another view as to the future of Geolocating.  According to Simple Geo, the start-up is indexing 1 MILLION locations, get this per HOUR.   Just as we’ve taken a peak at Gowalla, Foursquare and My Town (the site to first hit 1 Million users) it will be interesting to follow and perhaps many of you will create just exactly what we do with all of this data.  It does seem a new dimension both in time (real time) and space (location) is emerging.  What do you think it will mean for individuals, social good, business in general?  It will certainly give the term “search” a new meaning.

I look forward to your thoughts.
