Apple iPhone Safari browser and Google Latitude

Smartphones are certainly that these days, it seems scary how we can keep an eye on and friends, family and even strangers. Google has a tracking service called Google Latitude, and support for the software will be coming to the Apple iPhone Safari browser, iPhone OS 3.0.

SlashGear has reported that Google had shown off the iPhone OS 3.0 Safari browser support for Latitude’s friend-tracking at last week’s Google I/O keynote. SlashGear have made a video with Google Latitude up and running on the iPhone Safari browser.

What this means for us is simple, the iPhone OS 3.0 will allow the Safari browser to determine the user’s location, this information is then used to update Google Latitude, as well as other location-aware services. This also means that we could be seeing turn-by-turn GPS navigation very soon.
