Citysense is an innovative mobile application for real-time nightlife discovery and social navigation, answering the question, “Where is everybody going right now?”
Citysense shows the overall activity level of the city, top activity hotspots, and places with unexpectedly high activity, all in real-time. Then it links to Yelp and Google to show what venues are operating at those locations. Citysense is a free demonstration of the Macrosense platform that everyone can enjoy.
Unfortunately, it’s only available in San Francisco for now. Scott, are you on this?

I downloaded and installed it. Pretty interesting, although the UI is crazy, all over the map, and it’s really tough to figure out how to use it, let along how you’re supposed to use it, and what you can do with it. Mostly, it just shows hot and cold zones of activity, pulsating across the city, and reads out whether activity levels in each hotspot are above or below average. Last night was a quiet one in SF, apparently.
