Brightkite now in Public Beta
A little after midnight last night we dropped our invite-only status and launched into public beta! I can’t express how excited we are to reach this milestone. Private beta testers, thank you for all your community support and feedback, we could not have made this happen without you.
What does this mean?
Well for starters the open public beta significantly devalued any Brightkite invitations floating around ;)
Invitations are no longer required and sign up is now open everyone. In addition, you can now invite your friends to join Brightkite without restriction.
Even though we are announcing the public beta today, keep watch over the next few weeks for a significant iPhone update, additional mobile support, additions to our API and a host of new features and improvements.

Will usage of The Wall present an opportunity for people to easily join?
We aim to bring social networking back into the real world. The Brightktie Wall presents an opportunity for people to join ad-hoc while out in the real world, without ever having to sign up at a computer.
Yes it is in the works.
