Project: bliin lets you find and follow your Friends across the world in real-time via your phone and over the web. Share your Live! location stream without the fuzz of ever setting your location manually … you’re simply Always There. Founded in 2007, bliin is a location-aware software provider that allows consumer and business users to share “Live” (real-time) location-based experiences through mobile phones and desktop computers. Through satellite navigation, bliin users can interact with family members and friends on a world map, send group messages to business associates, record trips, set geo-alerts, monitor deliveries, track company vehicles, and much more.Called “one of the most promising startups outside the USA” by CNNMoney/Business2.0, the company has been recognized for having one of the most innovative mobile applications by Forum NOKIA, was the winner of the 2007 European Satellite Navigation Competition, and is active in the European Space Agencies (ESA) Technology Transfer Program.
