My experience with this app and it’s use of Cell ID has not been very good, I wish they had included an option for the user to select their internal GPS if they’re getting inaccurate results with the Cell ID like I was they should be able to change the setting to use GPS. I live in Monterey CA and it [buzzd] would give me results for a city 35 miles away. Then it would tell me that a location was 15 miles away when I know the place wasn’t more than 5 miles from me. Buzzed is a perfect name for an app that sends you 35 miles out of your way . If they update it to include a GPS option, I may give it another try, until then I’ll be removing it from my BB.

[...] is a location-based city guide and social network. Instead of using GPS to track your location, it uses Cell ID, which apparently is faster than GPS and works more efficiently in concentrated areas (like clubs [...]

Haven’t checked out the app, but a great idea. The bigger challenge is bubbling up relevant information.

after all this realtime stuff, location based + realtime will be the next big thing.

this is a bust for two main reasons – lack of wide distribution and poor user retention. I think they launched around Dec07, how many active users do they have to show for, would bet it is less than 200K, this is just another hype

as a standard typing on a keyboard will not be necessary in the near future for mobile and the internet.

“click, click, click, bingo.”

your close but no cigar. this is how you bridge the internet and mobile language bridge and forever embed users in a universal internet and mobile media empire-
MeetingLocator.com
ReligionLocator.com
RepublicanLocator.com
KitchenLocator.com

the exilir language bridge has yet to be fully developed. we own the best strategic raw land and building materials you could ever own. when you go out into the night sky pick out a thousand of the brightest stars shining brighter than all the res and think of me, i own’em.

are you joking? poynt’s cell id triangulation is crud. their app is great through wifi and over GPS and i love poynt’s movie times and directory listings but overall their cell id positioning could use A LOT of work and doesn’t compare…

i just started playing with buzzd and wow! this thing has already saved me a bunch of times while going out

last week i got off the plane and opened up buzzd and low and behold, it found my location in dallas texas and showed me 3 bars and 2 great events in the area.

this thing is sweet and solid!

If an app were to tell me the % of hot girls in a bar at any given time I would pay for it.

The concept is intriguing and has potential. I tried app – buzzd (counter intuitive name)… the app is barely average, feels like bunch of diff things slapped together without much thought about user experience or value to user. 95% of the time, i dont need reviews, b/c i know moist places i hang oput and/.oir if my frnds are hanging out, i can just find out from them, it is not like there is lot of my friends ugc there alrealy… Lattitude is sufficient for me, gives me lbs and loopt is decent.

what’s so bad about their mobile web app??

I’ve used it and its great!! A few kinks here and there like any other site but for the most part, it does what its supposed to do.

If it’s anything like their mobile web app, I won’t be using it. That’s crap.

You’re saying, you know where everything is happening at all times and are completely aware of your friends movements at any moment in your city. I’m going to guess you reside in one of New Orleans’ Cities of the Dead, and you’re a zombie! Right?

Just your totally objective view. As some kind of – let’s guess – MyLocator principal.

So, partying, drinking being dumb, you “embed people” in a neverland they don’t ever want to leave by inviting them to…church meetings? Bake sales? Republican youth rallies? Tupperware experiences?

EntertainmentLocator.com is so *easy* for the mobile keyboard. I’d type that over & over & over, instead of using one of those dime-a-dozen mobile apps that you push one time. Where’s the challenge in that?

Please, please do tell what MyLocator sees as responsible fun, and also, if you will, this elixir language bridge where unicorns play – where can we find it?

Not the first and certainly not even close to the best.

The best part of Buzz’d are the zzzzz for the lack of experience.

Don’t leave the day job, fellas.

dumb name with an interesting product. imagine telling others to visit your buzzd profile online. not gonna happen.

Slogan “Get Mobile, Get Buzzd”. sounds like a promotion to drink or party. dumb.

these mobile apps are a dime a dozen. what is valuable is the company that bridges the internet and mobile in a uniform, cohesive, natural language fashion where users embed themselves and never leave.

EntertainmentLocator.com – find fun

While this application seems useful for someone living in a city I do not get the whole need for location. I know where everything is in my city and where my friends are.
