GeoSpot Local Search and Exploration Goes Mobile

And now GeoSpot search for "what is open" is available to mobile phone users!





You can search for businesses that are open now or at a time you want, use contextual navigation to find related POIs, see the location on the map, or simply use the one-click phone dial feature to immediately contact the businesses of interest. Just type in http://www.geospot.com/ on your mobile phone and enjoy GeoSpot on your own device.

We support pretty much any mobile phone that has a browser.
GeoSpot servers will provide the version appropriate for your mobile phone's screen size, whether it is iPhone, Blackberry, or any other.

We have received a great response from users and media and will post some of that here soon.

GeoSpot Service with Searchable Open Hours Now Covers All of California and Nevada

The service which lets people search for businesses (restaurants, bars, and others) that are open "now" or at a specified time has been covering the whole of California and Nevada for some time. We just did not announce it and it was brought to our attention that we should not be keeping this "secret".

We started with the San Francisco Bay Area early this year but quickly started receiving requests to add other cities. And so we gradually expanded the "what is open" searchable hours to the rest of California including Tahoe, Greater Los Angeles, San Diego, Sacramento, and other cities and to Nevada including Las Vegas and Reno.
Sounds like places where people either work late or party late.
Thank you for your feedback, keep it comming!
