Social sites could become friend-finders, mobile devices could tell you about your environment, your home could respond to your proximity or absence. Fire Eagle is a new open geo platform designed to make this a reality.In this session, Tom will talk about some of the problems that have stopped location-sensitive services going mainstream, location brokerage as a new architectural layer to bind together geo-services, and how Fire Eagle gives users unprecedented control over their data and privacy.
