Google Latitude 1 Million Users In 1 Week
Google Latitude reportedly got one million users in it’s first week of launch. I really wish I had the time to check out everything Google launches, but there you have it.
According to an item published in FierceMobileContent,
more than a million wireless subscribers had signed up for Google’s new mobile friend finder Latitude in its first week according to Vic Gundotra, Google’s vice president of engineering.
Gundotra was a speaker on a panel at Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona.

I don’t know, man. This really freaks me out.
There isn’t a single person on the face of this earth that I deem so vital to my existence that I want to know where they are at any given moment. I think anyone who needs this level of constant contact or awareness has real issues, and should find their therapist with Latitude.
I think Google Latitude is an amazing creation. It helps me track my kids since I can use it on my phone. Gives moms like me more peace of mind, seriously!
Lattitude is a bit scarey for me
