Checking out of LBS - Peter Kim

Peter Kim joins the stampede of those declaring ‘check in’ dead, led by Mark Watkins at RRW, making the case that it’s more work than its worth to use an independent tool for just checkins, and as a result :

LBS will survive, but only as a feature of larger scale social networks.

Again, what appeared to be a huge market opportunity is revealed to be a feature.

As I have often said, why doesn’t Twitter just build in a check in feature? Or Tumblr, for that matter?
