LightPole, a mobile application service provider focused on the “Long Tail” publishing market, has announced integration with Yahoo! Fire Eagle, a personal location service platform. The service isn’t yet iPhone compatible, but that’s on tap for later this year.
LightPole also added the Mobile Posting and My Channels features to its flagship release. They’re two new capabilities that provide users with a more interactive and content-rich experience from their mobile device, no matter where they are or what they’re doing, according to Doug Klein, CEO of LightPole
With LightPole’s latest release and its integration with Yahoo! Fire Eagle, a service that allows anyone to share their location with sites and services online, Mobile Discovery is more a reality than ever, he adds. If a user changes their location through LightPole or another Fire Eagle-enabled application, that information is then stored for other trusted applications and sites to access or update automatically.
