The Russians Are Coming, Bearing An Algorithm-Based Restaurant App Called Gvidi

gvidi-app-map (1)We've been fans of AlterGeo for a little while. Around since 2008, this startup has a clever hybrid positioning system which combines WiFi, WiMAX, GSM, GPS, CDMA, IP (and for all we know NSA data :-) to make it Russias leading location-based social networking service. Foursquare Schmorsquare, comrades. But in November last year they realised they were sitting on a lot of interesting data which could be applied to restaurants, so they released what they say is an "intelligent restaurant guide", Gvidi, a free iOS-app based on their data. Now that guide is launching with US data on a new app, get it here. Yessiree - the Russians are coming and the bear apps.
