Google Latitude App

Now with %100 less FAIL: Google Latitude now is available to iOS users as an app, and it runs in the background! Whoo hoo! There will be much rejoicing. Even more interesting – it appears to update location information even when the application has been closed, and I don’t mean put in the background. I tried this by killing the App in the background process tray, and the “location data” arrow remained in my toolbar. I was then able to be followed all the way home without opening the app again. We’ll see if this is a feature or a bug, but it’s interesting nonetheless.
