Youloc is a platform for users of mobile devices to share and store their location online. Think of a Google Latitude or Nokia Sports tracker with the difference that Youloc is completely open source which means that anybody can use and contribute to the program we are building. That means that the software is not controlled by any single entity (corporation, individual etc.) but the community.
People behind youloc are typical "computer geeks" who prefer open source software to proprietary software.
Location Based Services are currently spreading fast across the Internet and everyone wants to have their share of it. During that progress everyone tries to make profit out of it. We don't like that, we want our users location to be freely available for everyone the users want and to be able to share it in the format and the way that users like.
