Ask.com, winner of the 2007 Webby Award for Best Mobile Site (head to m.ask.com on your phone, although we think it might be a bit US-centric), has just launched a new Ask Mobile application in the States.
The GPS-based app is initially available for Sprint handsets with GPS functionality, but if it takes off there’s not reason why it shouldn’t be headed Europe-wards too. Features include a ’share my location’ tool which can send other people a link to a map and directions to wherever you are, an ‘Evites’ system to help you track all the parties you’re invited to (being the good-looking, popular person that you are), and the usual location-based ‘where’s my nearest bar/ restaurant/ police station’ type stuff.
For US readers, head here to check out compatible handsets and download, or click here to read more about Ask Mobile on the company’s blog.
