During SXSW Interactive 2010 the new location infrastructure service SimpleGeo was posting a live datastream of geolocated check-in data on Austin.Vicarious.ly which they have compiled into a really cool data visualization video.

This is the data SimpleGeo collected from the eight geolocated data providers (FourSquare, Gowalla, Twitter, Flickr, Bump, Brightkite, BlockChalk, and Fwix) during the South by SouthWest Interactive Festival.

SimpleGeo is currently in beta with plans to launch by the end of March.
