Comments

Lots of good information. Would love to see the slides uploaded soon. Thanks

 

Nice presentation with a lot of pragmatic stuff done by a very well informed speaker.

 

Thanks for a quick peek into a number of location-aware apps/sites. Would like to have seen more from a developer's perspective, e.g. "here's the code for an app that uses location to do such and such"

 

A good overview of this type of technology. I liked this session because, unlike a number of other sessions I attended, this session delivered what was described in the abstract. The speaker covered the fundamentals and he did so with clarity.

 

A great overview of the different methods available to leverage geolocations on mobile devices. Sarver's view of future development for the use of geocoding for creating web applications that are aware of a user's location was especially interesting.

 

Lots of useful information and well presented. He was proactive in telling us where to get more information. That is what this is all about - getting pointers.

 

Great presentation. He's well informed, about what his company uses, and what else is out there. It really expanded what uses I had considered for LBS.

 

Great information, very up-to-date and informative.
