Gowalla
And why wouldn’t we? Gowalla is a location-based mobile social network for sharing your favorite places and events with your friends while discovering the world around you. It’s based around the concept of users checking in to locations as they go out for the evening, run errands, dine out or whatever else they may be doing in their cities or others that they visit.
Got a hankering for pizza, and want to try something new? Pull out your GPS-enabled Smartphone and take a virtual look around. With Gowalla, you can see what restaurants are near you, which of your friends has checked in there, and what they think about it.
With an estimated 2,536,800 monthly visits, Gowalla is blazing its own trail in the social media realm, and people are definitely taking notice.
At the 13th annual SXSW Web Awards, Gowalla was named best site in the Mobile category. But that’s not all. When the Austin American-Statesman presented 25 awards to Texas online luminaries who have made an impact in social media, this year’s overall winner was Josh Williams, Gowalla co-founder and CEO.
Congratulations, Gowalla! We look forward to shaping and sharing your exciting future.
