Brightkite and Limbo are "joining forces"

brightkite-limbo I can't say that's I've ever used Limbo; I'm sure I created an account there at some point but that doesn't mean anything. I am, however, a big fan of Brightkite. To me Brightkite's always been a location-based Twitter-like service with better features and better interfaces. But that's neither here nor there.

The news today is the Bightkite has announced that they are joining forces with Limbo. It seems to be more a merger than a partnership though. The Limbo site points you right to Brightkite, and the Brightkite blog offers this explanation:

We plan to move all Limbo accounts and key features to the Brightkite platform. Limbo users gain an enriched product, enhanced user interface, and new Brightkite friends. We expect this transition to happen within the next few weeks. Brightkite users please welcome Limbo users and be sure to show them the ropes.

Connect with me on Brightkite. I'm treocast.
