OPW - Oct 19 - MeetMe announced the launch of a new feature that has one foot in your smart phone, and the other foot in 560 bars around the country. The new Photoboard feature in MeetMe allows users to see freshly uploaded pictures from people nearby. A great way to visualize the community around you. Thanks to a deal with Zoom Media & Marketing, they're also pushing these images out into 560 digital screens in bars around the USA. This iphone/android app feature to real world cross-over is a first. I'm looking forward to observing the user behavior around it. - Mark Brooks (Full Disclosure: Meetme is a client of Courtland Brooks)

social network aimed at teens is posting photos of teens in bars?
So this means if i go to a bar i can see my kids on the screen. Or does it mean those teens are going to bars, or are being encouraged to go to bars. Or is it so people in bars can meet underage kids?
That just does not sound right. I hope this is 18-19 year old teenagers at least in areas which have a drinking age lower than 21.
