Remember the social location app Gowalla? It’s back, ready to go SoLoMo. So far, it does very little; you can check in to places, there’s a map where you can see where your friends are, and your friends can see where you are.
I started using Swarm again this year to keep track of the places I visit, but I don’t see why I should use Gowalla instead. Nothing about the app stands out or hints towards a worthwhile future. The Twitter thread offers a lot of marketing words but very little substance. And there’s no API.
