A ProximityCast Restaurant Rendezvous

Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, what so fragrant, what so intoxicating - as possibility?
by: Soren Kierkegaard (1813-55)
Danish philosopher

Cafe Pontalba

So you find that special restaurant that you would like to take that special person out to eat at... You want to build the anticipation for the special moment and give that special person a sense of the ambiance you two will enjoy at the chosen place...

Now you search ProximityCast.com and find some kind user has already submitted a nice picture of the current favored restaurant. So you go to the Establishment Details page to get some goodies to email your special someone...

Cool! The Establishment Website has a menu...
No surprises! You have an idea of what to order and what it will cost so both you and that special someone can experience Deja Vu upon Arrival all thanks to ProximityCast.com

And you thought Google's Street View was cool... Well, it is... Enter the coordinates from the ProximityCast picture N29°57.44' W090°3.82' into Google Maps and compare the two...

Yep, this is the one! Enter the coordinates into your GPS so you know you will arrive at the correct spot and not some bogus street address mislocated spot...

Your special someone responds back after sending the email with all the appropriate data for making a good decision...

The rendezvous is set...

SHUCKS...
The restaurant of your dreams cannot be found in ProximityCast...
What to do, what to do?
Wow! Anyone can register and enter a location picture into ProximityCast.com/register

The best part, geographic coordinates work the same way anywhere in the world...
Street addresses vary from country to country and are often wrongly located on Google Maps and others...
What kind of useful, exotic, or interesting restaurants can you submit?

Founder out...ciao
