I've been using the sample checkin app https://checkin.swf.pub/ for a few weeks now, and I've found myself missing the personal places feature from Foursquare. You can add places to 4sq that are important only to you, with the level of vagueness that you prefer. For example: Home, Work, Darius's House, The Cottage. They let your friends know where you are, without sharing the exact location (123 Main Street) or having one house on the planet called "Home". I have found this kind of interesting, so I added a few user stories for BREAD (browse, read, edit, add, delete) features of personal places: https://github.com/swicg/geosocial/issues/21 https://github.com/swicg/geosocial/issues/22 https://github.com/swicg/geosocial/issues/23 https://github.com/swicg/geosocial/issues/24 https://github.com/swicg/geosocial/issues/25 If you're interested in geosocial applications, please take a look there and comment on the issues.
