WHERE, a popular location-based application from uLocate Communications, is a huge hit at the iTunes App Store, downloaded over 125, 000 times since the 3G iPhone was released last Friday. With up to 100 activations per second, WHERE has even been dubbed by The Wall Street Journal’s Walter Mossberg as one of ten iPhone apps that are a must-see.
WHERE is a widget-based platform that aggregates local information from other services such as Eventful, Yelp, GasBuddy, Zipcar, Starbucks, and uLocate’s very own Buddy Beacon. Some of WHERE’s new location-based features include Quibblo, a location-aware polling service, SkyMap, a map of none other than the sky, Zipcar, pointing you to the nearest Zipcar location, and HeyWhatsThat, a 360 degree panorama of the skyline that names mountain peaks.
The WHERE app is available for free for both the iPhone and iPod Touch in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
