Amidst all the excitement of the 3G iPhone release on Friday, I think I forgot about how awesome the applications are going to be.

Check out these 2 apps by a company called PosiMotion:

G-Spot: Position Sharing for the iPhone
Look at the detail of the GPS coordinates there.  It’s like a geocaching machine right in your pocket.  My Garmin C550 won’t even give me that level of detail.   And don’t you hate it when you get kidnapped? I know I do.  Now I can just shoot out my location to everyone, and I won’t even need to login to Twitter first.

G-Park: Where Did I Park?
Now this one is pretty sweet.  Get out of your car at Six Flags, hit ‘Park Me!’, add extra details if you’d like, then leave.  When you’re ready to go home, hit ‘Where did I park?’ and get directions back to your car.  Maybe I need to get an iPhone for my wife……… ask her about the time she had to call Mall Security (you know, the little CR-V with flashing orange lights) and have them go up and down the rows until her and her friend found their car….

Position-based social networking is about to take off.  GPS is going to fuel the growth.

Hopefully some of these awesome applications are free!!
