ok, so I posted this in the OTHER Radius IM thread - but no diggs on that one:sounds like a competitor to meetro. Hopefully these guys arent as egotistical as meetro guys.I think the idea of this has a little potential - I dont know how much, but i dont think its a deep potential in the "IM and Chat" area as much as I would think it has value as an engine for commerce.If you could allow for people to "ply their wares" in an IM forum and connect buyers and sellers based on geolocation proximity....
What I'd like to know, is do they ask you where you are? Or is it based on what IP you've been assigned? I was under the impression geolocation per IP is only accurate to the city level. Never the less, interesting.

Filters Camino also but Camino uses the same Gecko as Firefox -> no digg.

love the location part -- I'm hooked, so I'm helping them out by digging it (new to this)
