Project PlaceSite introduces a new way of using wireless networks -- to create digital community services by, for and about people who are together in the same physical place.

PlaceSite is an open platform for a new breed of Web service tied intimately to physical places. It lets people share information locally, apart from the global Web.

PlaceSite is built upon what already exists -- users don't need to install new software or purchase new hardware. It also enables location-based services without relying on participation by cellular carriers or Internet service providers.
