Google Latitude on iPhone = Fail
Eric Zeman at InformationWeek echoes sentiment heard round the Web about the new addition to the iPhone's browser, Safari, that enables Google's location sharing app, Google Latitude. The issues he points out include poor location determination (it does not use GPS) and more importantly, it runs into the chronic "apps can't work in the background on the iPhone" problem.
To Google's credit, it notes this limitation publicly, which is just another poke at Apple to solve the problem.
