"Bing has launched \"We're In,\" a new app for Windows Phone that lets a group of friends coordinate their plans by sharing their locations.\nThe app isn't like Foursquare, which is designed to broadcast your location to the rest of the world. Instead, the app is all about making it easier to plan an event with a group of friends.\nSay you're trying to get a group of friends to meet at the mall or at a roller coaster at 3:30. Trying to coordinate all of your friends to meet at an exact location can be painfully time-consuming and cause confusion.\n\"We're In\" simplifies the process of organizing these types of get-togethers. One user creates an event, adds friends to it via his contact list or phone number, titles the plan and chooses how long he wants people to share his location information.  \nThese friends then receive a text that will either let them use the app or open a web interface. The interface maps out the location of all people participating in the event, making it easy to figure out who's already arrived, who's lost and who's behind schedule. Members of the temporary event can also send status updates to keep the rest of the group informed.\n\n\nBing's \"We're In\" App\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBing's We're In App\nBing's new mobile app lets a group of friend share their location for a set period of time.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe're In's Map Interface\nOnce users join the event, they can see their location in relation to the rest of the group.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSharing Status Updates\nUsers can update their status on We're In.
