Hi, the invites I had are long gone. Do you really need a Java API? There are six other options, which is more than you'll get from a lot of consumer Web 2.0 sites.

Can you please give a invite key. Fire eagle has another problem it does not have Java client.

Yeah, Fireball did a private beta. The Fire Eagle team said they may be public by then, which should drive app development. Right now, nothing seems to be working. Assuming Firebot comes back or there's another Twitter-based app, I think that would useful. Would make it way easier to do ad hoc meetups.

So the Web 2.0 Expo used it this year. I thought it was kind of lame. Do you think that it will work better at OOW?

Yeah, I haven't had a lot of success with either push or pull, but I haven't really spent much time testing. Kind of just hoping it will work out when they go public beta.

Hmm. I can push to FE from BK, but BK doesn't seem to pull from FE (which is actually the direction I'd like best). I did find a sweet app for my BlackBerry called FindMe, which does automatic location updates through a FaceBook app. I also installed another BlackBerry app called LightPole beta, which seems pretty neat. No automation, but can find cool stuff near me.

On its way by email, don't expect much from the Brighkite-FE app. I've yet to get it working at all. Definitely let me know if you have any success.

I'd love a Fire Eagle invite if you have any left. I just signed up for BrightKite, and I want to play with the interaction between them.

I'd love one – very curious about this service. Hoping that something can be done between FireEagle and my treo for location sensing, too!
