As a developer have you ever wondered what you could do if you had the ability to get a constant location stream, set boundaries around a venue, target customers based not only on their location coordinates but the "context" of what is happening around them such as a music concert or the Giants celebration parade? Well you can now with Sparkle - helping you develop a completely new class of Applications. See some example of where some of our developers have done:

  • TweetMover -- A Twitter based location game
  • MayorMaker -- A Foursquare based auto checkin and checkout app (will be supporting Facebook Places soon)

Other cool applications and products you can develop include the ability to control delivery of voice call, text messages based on predefined rules. E.g You do not want your kids to be texting while driving.

Let us know if you would like to have access to our Sparkle API's for iPhone and Android.
