Twitter Scoops up Mixer Labs, creators of the Geo API  E-mail
Written by @gletham   
23 December 2009

What do Birdfeed, Seesmic Web, Foursquare, Gowalla,Twidroid, Twittelator Pro have in common??? The Twitter Geo API.

 You may have heard some buzz recently, however, as of today the crew from Mixer Labs, developers of the Twitter Geo Location API, are now part of Twitter, having been scooped up by the social media powerhouse.

This from the Twitter blog… The Mixer Labs crew has been working on harnessing the power of local information for a couple years and just recently launched GeoAPI (See http://www.geoapi.com/) , a comprehensive service for helping developers build geolocation-aware applications. As of today, they’re part of Twitter and will be working to combine the contextual relevance of location to tweets. We want to know What’s happening?, and more precisely, Where is it happening? As a dramatic example, twittering “Earthquake!” alone is not as informative as “Earthquake!” coupled with your current location. Great news and another great plug for Geo Tech!
