Brightkite iPhone Application

Finally!  A Brightkite application for the iPhone:

Brightkite is a location-based social network. In real time you can see where your friends are and what they’re up to. Depending on your privacy settings you can also meet others nearby.

I use it often via text message or mobile browser but this will be greatly helpful moving forward and likely increase my usage of the site due to it’s ease. I also use Brightkite to update my Twitter profile‘s location. One thing I like about Brightkite over similar services is the ability to upload photos and notes in correlation with the most location you have checked in to. You are also able to set up your Brightkite profile to post all of your posts to your Twitter profile and have filtering options to determine which types of posts to push.
