I remember these guys from SXSW and I'm happy to see they got some financing.
Localmind is a very cool concept with a lot of potential but it needs thousands of users in every city for the app to be useful. During SXSW, they got precisely that level of density and the omniscience-as-a-service vision became very clear to me.
Intriguingly, because Localmind uses check-in services to passively acquire location data, it doesn't require users to actively use it in order for density to accumulate in the service.

Yeah... "world-changing." Don't really see it.
Congrats guys! One of the slickest apps for the iPhone.
If you're looking for a job, you should definitely check them out. I know Lenny and he's an awesome smart and nice guy. I'm sure the other founders are just as nice.
Actually, they're all asses. Sorry Lenny, Beau... The truth has gotta get out. :P
Naw, they're awesome dudes and they'll be missed in Montréal. Who else but Lenny can we put all of out name tags onto by the end of every Startup Drinks ?

Nice going! I remember getting this app as soon as I got the twitter from @jonosapien that it was hot stuff! Didn't regretted since then!
Really happy for you guys :)
Wow - that was fast. Kudos all around to these upstanding cybernauts!
BOOM! Good stuff, guys!!
Imhotep favors you.
Congrats Lenny & Team!
I'm a fan. Yay Localmind!
