this would be good for someone who looses their phones or attach it to pets or hide it in your car so when your car is stolen, you know exactly where it is

They mean for it to be used so people will walk down the street, staring at their phones the whole time and be able to go, "ZOMGWTFBBQz0Rs my buddy Billy Bob is a block away!" And you need data to see your friends if you're on the move.

I have it installed on the work BB, and already added one friend to the list..
* thinking about creating a group so we can all track each other, rename u as the username , say Hi when i see you at Espot or in Richmond
This is also good for company BB's - to make sure the employee is really sick

Reminds me of that Homer Simpson episode where they track Bart via phone.

Hmm...the problem can be easily fixed: Don't use it.  Quote: Google Latitude’s #1 Problem Can’t Be Fixed
Published by Ewan on Sunday 8th February 2009, 11:56 | Filed under: Mobile Applications
You can’t fix trust. Not with a click of a button.
Have a read of this:1 in 3 Australians will snoop in the phones of their partners (according to a Virgin Mobile survey).
60% of them do it when their partner is in the shower. 41% do it with their partner in view.
(quote from Tomi Ahonen’s presentation at Future of Mobile 2008.)
Principally I suspect the ’snooping’ is looking at text messages and recent call lists.
Now if it’s that bad without sticking ‘location’ into the mix, how is it going to be when the masses take a look at Google Latitude?
How many relationships — business and personal — are about to get absolutely nailed by the fact that your friends and partners can *SEE* where you are. Or where you were?
Witness the following frequently used explanations that I often overhear:
Chap: I’m still in the office
Google Latitude: He’s over the other side of London. With friends Graham, Paul. And, er — if you check out that Kate girl’s blog, you’ll see her Latitude puts her within 100m of him.
Chap: I’m just at the shops buying you something in that underwear shop!
Google Latitude: He’s at PC World, about a mile away from any shops that might sell underwear.
Chap: (Text message) I’m just getting on the train.
Google Latitude: He hasn’t left the office.
Chap: NO? I’m not out with the guys. I’m just getting a sandwich then I’m on my way home.
Google Latitude: Before he switched me off, he was sitting next to ‘the guys’. And that bitch girl Kate was heading this year. That was an hour ago. That’s all I know, right?
Chap: Sorry boss, I’m stuck in the snow and I won’t be able to get into work.
Google Latitude: Rubbish! He’s at the leisure park near work — next to the cinema!
Teenager: I’m, er, just going to the shops to get a can of Coke. Back in 20.
Google Latitude: He’s round that Vicky-girl’s house again.
Teenager: Yeah I’m at school. So what, mum?
Google Latitude: He’s not in school. He’s not in the same town actually. Ask him how he got to the next town?
And so on.
Despite the fact that Latitude has bucketloads of privacy goodness, the use of this technology is going to take quite a while to get a hang of…

My friend got it on his iphone. It's funny, we were at some bar last weekend and we found out his friend was 50m away from us. The program is pretty cool.

Installed it on my BB today. Seems to work pretty well (well, as good as my GPS signal which is spotty at best inside my house)
