Glympse - Safely share your location in real-time via email, SMS, Facebook, or Twitter.
"Glympse: The Coolest Thing Your Smartphone Can Do"
-FastCompany
Glympse is the easy way to safely share your location in realtime. No sign-up needed. No social network to manage. Just send a Glympse to anyone via email, SMS, Facebook, or Twitter. Your location is only shared for the duration you specify and then stops.
Glympse works on all phones and tablets running Android 1.5 or newer.
Note about the Widget: Most versions of Android do not allow Widgets for apps installed to the SD card. If you encounter this issue, moving the application back to main memory should resolve the issue.
