Virgin Mobile provides Location Based Services

From TechCrunch, we have learned that Virgin Mobile has signed a deal with location based city guide slash social network, Buzzd.

The deal will allow users to obtain local entertainment information (events, concerts, restaurant reviews/ratings) to be broadcast and shared among users in the same proximity.

While several other companies are now offering LBS to their users, this is another example of why we should be externalizing our clients' data to these services and thinking about marketing opportunities to the early adopters.
