Bump is a great iPhone app…only if your network is mainly with iPhone owners (which is not the case). The main idea is great but the developers should make Bump play nicely also with other smartphones.

Another cool iPhone app is Wink from Shutterfly, read about it at http://idaconcpts.com/2010/01/19/shutterflys-wink...

From mashable: http://mashable.com/2010/02/25/bump-facebook/ "Jake Mintz, co-Founder of Bump Technologies, told me that he and his team worked closely with Facebook to make this happen. He’s “pretty sure” that Bump’s the first app that can initiate and accept friend requests; we can’t think of any mobile apps off the top of our heads that do, so we think it’s likely Bump is the first." So it looks like something new FB added to allow it, which only Bump uses right now.

Yeah – they're either scraping or they have a special relationship with Facebook. Is this something Facebook is testing with developers? I'd love access to this.
