Dodgeball (service)
Dodgeball was a location-based social networking software provider for mobile devices. Users text their location to the service, which then notifies them of crushes, friends, friends' friends and interesting venues nearby. Google acquired Dodgeball in 2005 and discontinued it in 2009, replacing it with Google Latitude.
==Overview==
Dodgeball was founded in 2003 by New York University students Dennis Crowley and Alex Rainert. The company was acquired by Google in 2005.〔(Polytechnic University paper )〕 In April 2007, Crowley and Rainert left Google, with Crowley describing their experience there as "incredibly frustrating".〔(Flickr blog )〕 After leaving Google, Crowley created a similar service known as Foursquare with the help of Naveen Selvadurai.〔(foursquare )〕
