Jon Cohrs - Urban Prospecting. Winner of a Futuresonic 2009 Art Award Commission. Artist Jon Cohrs has created a device for striking it rich by prospecting for oil in the city centre. Using old metal detectors, hydrocarbon sensors, locative media, and hype, this project combines a DIY aesthetic, basic accessible electronics, and pop culture to re-invigorate urban exploration and prospecting. Riding on the coat tails of the current subculture of prospecting and the historical precedent of the Gold Rush, the aim is to encourage a tongue-in-cheek urban oil rush. Instructions how to make the device will be made available online, and news of oil strikes in cities around the world projected as a Twitter feed in the gallery space.

Bliin Dominos Pizza Las Vegas. Bliin Previews 2.0 Software for GPS-Enabled Social Network AVING USA. Company teams up with Domino's Pizza to demonstrate commercial application at Consumer Electronics Show , /PRNewswire/ -- If you order pizza from a -area Domino's Pizza today through , you won't have to sit back and wonder when the Domino's delivery expert will arrive. All you have to do is log on to www.bliin.com, a GPS-enabled social networking site, and you'll be able to see - in real time - the minute your pizza leaves the shop and track every stop until it reaches your door. It's part of an effort by an -based company called bliin - with U.S. headquarters in - to demonstrate the 2.0 version of its social networking platform in conjunction with the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which starts today in . Founded in 2007, bliin is a location-aware software provider that allows consumers and business users to share real-time, location-based experiences.

Other Activities at CES About bliin SOURCE bliin.com. HEINEKEN - DELIVERY MEN. Heineken start gps-spel samen met Bliin. Heineken.nl gebruikt vanaf vandaag de Nederlandse geoblogging-site Bliin.com om Heineken-chauffeurs via gps volgbaar te maken. Bezoekers kunnen raden op bestemmingen. De GPS-routes van Heineken-vrachtwagens worden gekoppeld aan de geoblogging-applicatie van Bliin.

Zo is precies op een satellietkaart op Heineken.nl te zien waar de chauffeurs zijn geweest. Ook voegen de medewerkers foto’s van locaties onderweg toe aan de kaart. Een onderdeel van de campagne is een spel waarbij bezoekers prijzen kunnen winnen als ze raden wat de volgende bestemming wordt van een Heineken-vrachtwagen.

Daarvoor krijgen ze een minuut de tijd. De mogelijke eindbestemmingen zijn horecagelegenheden die als groene punten die op de kaart staan. Chauffeurs in het zonnetje De marketingcampagne is bedacht door het Amsterdamse bureau Qi, dat regelmatig samenwerkt met Heineken. Heineken verandert de site elke zes weken met een nieuwe online campagne. Voor de campagne zet Heineken banners en radiospotjes in. The Mobile City » Blog Archive » Heineken locative game on Bliin.com. According to Dutch tech lifestyle site Bright (in Dutch only), one of the world’s largest beer brewer Heineken (#4 says Wikipedia.org) has stepped into locative platform Bliin for their newest marketing campaign.

Heineken truckers who deliver beer to their customers can be followed live on the map via the Bliin website. People playing this game may win prizes if they can predict where the delivery men will go for their next stop. (source: Bright ) Bliin is a locative platform. First of all, I find it interesting that big companies are now stepping into the ‘locative thing’ as a new way to reach (young?) Technology | Social networking on the move. Online social networks already allow users to share photos, videos and update friends on everything they do.

Now a new generation of sites is going a step further, using satellite positioning to track users' whereabouts. Ian Walker is making his way across the car park outside of his office on Liverpool's Edge Lane. His friends can watch his journey into work because he's connected to Bliin, one of the new generation of social networking sites that is using satellite positioning technology. Users with Global Positioning System (GPS) enabled mobile phones log-on using a small application loaded onto the handset. Their location can be viewed by other users with similar phones or through Bliin's website where the positions are superimposed onto Google Maps. Just passing by Ian, who is one of the first people to use the system in the UK, explained: "I had a situation where I was going to a restaurant and I wanted people to see when I would be returning. "My friends followed me. Abuse worries. TTP2 - Satellite navigation boosts social networking.

Mobile and online social network bliin 16 January 2008 Dutch company ‘bliin YourLIVE’ has developed new possibilities for online social networking using satellite positioning data, mobile phones and the internet. ESA’s Business Incubation Centre in Noordwijk is all set to help the company get off the ground. "bliin enables users to be live all the time, anywhere in the world where there is mobile phone and internet coverage. Bliin online Amsterdam All the shares - photos, videos, text and audio files - are uploaded to the bliin website and tagged by satellite navigation data. At present the system uses the GPS satellite positioning system but once Europe’s Galileo global navigation satellite system becomes fully operational bliin plans to use it with Galileo’s better functionality. For example, bliin could be used to follow a parcel on its journey from distribution centre to delivery point or to trace a vehicle, giving its exact mileage and route, to support road payments or rental costs.

Bliin Is GPS-based Live Blogging. Bliin is a live community that lets you share images, audio, text and video from wherever you are, and it's shared with the world on the bliin Google map. You'll have to install the bliin software in order to be a fully active member, and bliin requires GPS software as well, so your whereabouts can be verified. Bliin also has software that can be downloaded to your mobile device, which should make live blogging much easier. Now you can blog live, sharing photos and videos from wherever you are. If you don't have GPS, you can still participate in bliin, but you'll be considered idle, and bliin won't be able to validate your location (it'll just have to take your word for it, right?). The map is really the focal point of bliin, and the multimedia that is shared around each location is minimalistic in its options. Leave comments or continue to browse by tag. You can share the URL of the media, but you can't send a personal message to their users.

It's a Web, Web, Web 2.0 world - Bliin (21) - Business 2.0.   Forget Latitude, Bliin is the best location app you’ve never heard of by 14sandwiches. Bliin in action This week much has been made of Google’s new Latitude service that allows you to share your current location with your Gmail contacts using the latest version of Google Maps For Mobile. While there has been a lot of hype (such as ReadWriteWeb’s piece here ) it’s a simple but useful service that probably won’t gain great traction for a while as many people are concerned about the privacy implications of sharing their location online.

I’ve looked at location-based services from Nokia here recently but did you know that there’s something way ahead of Google and Nokia’s efforts? You can sign up and use it today and yet very few people ever mention it. Bliin is a Dutch service that combines the location sharing of Latitude with the journey recording and media sharing of Nokia viNe. It’s available across a wide range of mobile platforms including S60 and the iPhone. Despite this potential, Bliin has currently quite a small community of users. Beyond Latitude: 4 Innovative Location-Based Apps.

Google's new geo-aware mobile application Latitude which lets you share your location with friends may have received all the hype, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the best or the most innovative app out there. We've recently come across some smaller, lesser-known services that could give Google a run for their money - that is, if anyone knew they existed.

Google's Latitude was not the first location-based service on the market by any means. Here at RWW, we've been fans of other mobile social networking applications like Loopt and Brightkite as well as location-aware Twitter clients like Twinkle among others. So of course when we ran across some other smaller location-based services, we had to take a look.

Each of the services listed below are doing something innovative that goes beyond Google's current offering. We just wish more people knew about them. Bliin Toaí Parallel Kingdom Radar. Museum De Paviljoens - KKEP. Bliin.com 'Krabbels en mailtjes, foto's, video en geluid, via sociale netwerken kun je steeds meer met je vrienden delen. En in tegenstelling tot wat ik wel eens denk, is het einde van de mogelijkheden nog lang niet in zicht. De website bliin gaat alweer een stap verder door mensen aan elkaar te koppelen via hun GPS-locatie. Zo kun je niet alleen lezen wat je vrienden doen, je kunt ook live zien waar ze zijn. De website bliin ging in januari 2007 van start en is een product van KKEP, het creatieve media platform van broer en zus Stef en Selene Kolman. Op de website wordt bliin omschreven als: ‘a GPS-enhanced, real-time and location-based social netwerk.

Bliin koppelt mensen aan elkaar via hun GPS-locatie. Speciaal voor deze tentoonstelling zijn de deelnemende kunstenaars en curatoren uitgerust met een GPS-ontvanger op hun mobiele telefoon.
