Background

SimpleGeo comes out of Boulder, Colorado - one of the most innovative startup scenes in the U.S. currently.

Location has been a big trend of 2010. Foursquare, Facebook, Google and others have developed successful products using location data. The idea behind SimpleGeo is to be a platform for others to utilize location data.

Back in February, before SimpleGeo had launched, the company claimed to be indexing more than 1 million location-based objects every hour.
