I would assume they must have the app running on the background, not sure if it can use triangulation or straight up GPS. Nice find vreal, and welcome to the team (Been pretty hectic for the last week, not too active)

well on the iphone its kind of like a mini blog.

hmm when i go out i post where i am. it places a marker on a map. ur friends can see where u are on the map by clicking on the entry or picture if u posted one with it.

on the iphone it shows where u last opened the app up. it doesn't show where u are at all times. you also have control over who sees ur exact location. u can block and unblock friends.

another thing , say i go to atlantic city and i post a picture and description of what i am doing. my friends can leave a comment .

here is the loopt iphone commercial
