Geolenz is a real-time location discovery application. The company is privately held and based in San Francisco Bay Area. With Geolenz you can quickly ask a question about where something is and just as quickly get an answer back from the community. The answer is in the form of marker(s) on a pictorial map, so you will know exactly where it is located. Examples of location related questions: a) Where is the tweetup in Palo Alto taking place?; b) Where are the biggest castles in the world located? Where are the finest distilleries in Scotland?; and c) Where is the house where the first rocky horror picture show was shot? Geolenz keeps track of all of your question and answer activity for you and provides real-time personal and community activity dashboards, and easy search. Twitter is used as a distribution platform to broadcast (tweet) questions and their responses to the user community. Geolenz was founded by repeat entrepreneurs with domain expertise in mapping and Geo-media platforms, and Web 2.0 technologies.
