Possibly irritating at times, but cool! Especially if merged with the Cubic phone, and you'd have your combined GSM/WiFi, your Google address book telling you which your contacts are on, where they are and what they're up to.

IM direct to his/her phone suggesting a pint in a nearby hostelry, and you've got a meeting set up that you'd never have been able to do otherwise. That would be cool, alright.
