VentureBeat Picks Five LBS Companies to Watch in 2009

Some are the same old, same old: BrikeKite, Whrrl, Mexens Technology. One I’d never heard of: LBS gaming company Orbster. One, Sense Networks, has already made investors piles of money by allowing them to predict store revenues by tapping into traffic coming and going.

Also noted: FaceBook and MySpace, which have yet to do anything with location, but which “would devastate the location-based social networking industry. No other social network is even close to achieving the same user base as these two.”
