Today, BlackLine GPS releases Blip, a free geo-social networking platform for GPS-enabled BlackBerry smartphones that allows users to share their location amongst friends, family members, and co-workers.

Blip Users select with whom their information will be published ensuring full control and privacy.  Blip allows users to track location history, plus view speed and direction when someone in your social circle is on the move.  Blip is also compatible with BlackLine’s flagship product, GPS Snitch, a wireless vehicle security and tracking product.  Blip users can interact with GPS Snitch remotely to provide on-demand tracking, arm/disarm the device, and monitor security alerts.

Blip is available now for a free download at http://www.blacklinegps.com/blip/ . Users install Blip over-the-air from their Internet browser on their BlackBerry smartphone.  From within the Blip application, the user can create an account, activate their BlackBerry smartphone, share their location, and interact with other devices shared to their account.
