This App Lets You Chat With Nearby UsersAnd Call Them On The Phone

wnm-PeoplePalo Alto-based Who's Near Me Live, abbreviated as WNM Live, is a two-year old company that's found moderate success by launching first on Windows Mobile and Windows Phone, before porting its mobile app to the iPhone, where it arrives today with a more limited feature set. The service, essentially a location-based chat similar in some respects to the newly acquired Yobongo, now boasts 400,000 users across its mobile, web and Facebook applications combined. Almost all of that user base is coming from mobile, however.The most unique thing about this app is one of its least-used features: on Windows Phone, it supports 3G/Wi-Fi calling. Yes, with phone calls with strangers. The new iPhone version,unfortunately(fortunately?) won't have the same option at launch, so it's safe to use for now.
