Keep Track

Facebook connects people all over the world as the biggest way of staying in touch with friends and family. Now, in addition to staying connected with others, you can use it to keep track of where your friends are.

Through its “Places” app, Facebook is taking advantage of GPS satellite tracking systems that are installed in phones to allow people to post their current location, which only their friends see.

This app takes keeping up with your friends and their hot spots to a new level. It takes away the hassle of having to call and see where your friends are hanging or also having to ask around to find the hot spots in town.

By using the GPS capabilities of phones that are so familiar to so many people, this app makes keeping track even easier.
