Given the news of Dennis Crowley's new company today, fun to go back and read up on the history of his first company Dodgeball It was an SMS-based social location app (basically the precursor to Foursquare) that he launched in 2000 (pre-iPhone!) and was acquired by Google in 2005 — and subsequently abandoned in 2007 in classic Google fashion Dennis went on to co-found Foursquare in 2009 https://medium.com/rick-webb/from-the-archives-soliloquy-for-dodgeball-ed8121dee285

I really, really liked that app. Foursquare and Gowalla, as well. Before I got into tech, my job was very relational, lots of hanging out in random spots. These apps would’ve made my work so much more interesting and serendipitous.
