First of all congrats to Felix Petersen and Stefan Kellner in Berlin! Plazes has been a work of love for the both them since 2005.  

Geo location services with cell phones are going to be a hot and will have some new legal and social effects in the coming years.

The one thing I do wonder is does this mean the Plazes new iPhone application is dead.  It was going to use GPS and cell triangulation (A-GPS) services of the upcoming iPhone to show and share your location. Below is a video demo.

So the guys over at Tech Crunch were planning an Iron Man Movie event in San Francisco.  They paid the full ticket price for every seat then they got a Cease and Desist E-mail from David Althoff at Marvel.

Now other movies have made tons of money by groups and clubs planing movie screens together. Just ask Mel Gibson.

David Althoff even ends the mail with a “please don’t print” message.  Sure David, sure! 

If Marvel continues the harassment of TechCrunch over a screening they’ve paid full price for, please don’t see this film.
