While Facebook Ponders, Twitter Launches Location

Facebook has been actively testing multiple location products and considering various implementations of some form of location feature, however Twitter has announced their official plans for location. While the implementation of Twitter’s new location feature isn’t exactly surprising, it highlights the company’s ability to push out product iterations quickly, something that Facebook has often touted as one of their competitive advantages.

Called “Twitter Places”, the product enables users to “tag Tweets with specific places […] and create new Twitter Places.”
