Localley is a tool that broadens the functionality of Facebook Places feature by letting you check in various places using a date and time in the future. Of course it is disappointing when you realize that you and a friend were at the same place (a live show or a movie theatre maybe) but missed a chance of meeting there because you had no idea of each other's presence in this very place. This is the problem solved by Facebook Places: it lets you show your friends where you currently are and also see who is nearby at this very moment. Localley goes one step further: we eliminate the disappointment that is inevitable when you find out you missed an event you really wanted to attend only because you had no one to go with - and later found out that some friends were at this very event and you could easily join them. Localley lets you share your plans to go somewhere with your friends and even invite them to join you - which will quickly solve a problem of a company.
