Have your followers automatically informed about your geoevents, how to get there, weather forecast, who plans to go as soon as you map them...
...and also the country, the city, the street (you decide!) you currently are in.

Be immediately notified via a direct message (not public) as soon as a friend of yours is in a particular area or an event of a particular type happens in one of your places.

"What do I need to do?" you may ask. Well, you just have to click a "Connect with Twitter" button in your QuoVadis Live! account settings page for Twitter.

"Do I have to give away my Twitter account password for this?" No way! We're following OAuth standards.
