I think augmented reality for smartphones like the iPhone 3GS is very, very cool. Now, comes Twitter 360, a new app that enables you to visualize your Twitter friends who are located near you using AR (it works in combination with the iPhone’s camera).
It’s one of the first apps to use Twitter’s new geotagging feature to mark your location when you tweet. It’s not intended to replace a full-blown Twitter client, however.
Here’s how it works: Twitter 360 annotates your tweets with GPS location information. Your friends can now see, via AR, the location from where you posted your last tweet. Geotagging is disabled by default for users, which means you will need to turn it on by going to Twitter.com’s Settings section to use it.
Yours for $2.99 in the App Store.
