Loopt Says:
Fish are going belly-up, and it’s raining dead birds (in Arkansas, Louisiana and even Italy, oh my!). We can’t help but ask, “should we worry?”* Well, if it is the end of the world, we better try and go out with a bang. Here at Loopt, we thought we could make this a bit more fun.
Now through next Monday, Jan. 17, Check In at your favorite bar or restaurant on Loopt with hashtag #aFLOCKalypse (and push it to Twitter), and get all your friends to do it too. Whatever place gets the most #aFLOCKalypse Check Ins will get a Loopt-sponsored aFLOCKalypse party with food, drinks (if they have ‘em) and some cool prizes.

This is a great idea, similar to what Foursquare has been doing lately.
How AboutWe, Meetcha PODS, Match, heck even eHarmony could do something fun like this and get a group of singles together in many cities at once. Creative, fun and smart, me like? Could get pretty viral and bring non-members to events to check out the crowd. Its ridiculously easy to set up, what’s to lose?
