By Wade Roush
As the news cycle slows down with the
approach of the holidays, I’ve had a bit
of time to attend to my towering backlog
of unpublished interviews, including the
one below, from a visit to Boston-based
uLocate. CEO Walt Doyle and vice
president of marketing Dan Gilmartin had
me over on November 9 for the company’s
weekly pizza lunch, and we talked about
the latest developments with the
company’s “Where” platform—a collection
of location-aware widgets for your
smartphone that can do things like find
you the best local prices on gasoline,
direct you to the nearest Starbucks,
show you a live map of local traffic,
grab movie reviews for the flicks
playing locally, and so forth.
