Not Many Americans Use Location-Based Services

Facebook Places, Foursquare and Gowalla are all hot products in the much-hyped location-based social space, but according to a new survey from the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project, only one percent of Americans use location-based services on any given day. Not surprisingly, the highest concentration of users can be found in adults between 18 and 29–with eight percent–and adults who use their mobile phones online–with seven percent.

About Voices

Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.

We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
