A hybrid of Google Calendar, Foursquare and Flickr
By Dave Winer on Monday, July 26, 2010 at 6:22 PM.

Let's say I'm having lunch with Andrew Baron next Tuesday at a local restaurant. We both put items on our calendar. Link those two items, and then link both of them to the location we're having lunch at. permalink

When the big day comes, I whip out my iPhone, which of course is synched to my calendar, and take a picture of Andrew and he takes a picture of me. The pictures automatically are linked to the calendar entry and to the location. permalink

Now, someday anyone (since we made this public, why not) who's just trawling around wonders if we ever met, they not only know where and when but what we looked like that day. permalink

Of course the right way for this to work is if it isn't a hybrid, but just nicely interconnected. permalink
