I was thinking of it but lacks the "street-close" aspect of the application, ie: You can be geolocalized as being "in Philadelphia" but it'll use a determined point as your factual location which may be on the opposite side of your real location.
I thought of that too and hesitated in taking "visitthe.re" but ultimately decided against it because the URL would've been too long. I think both versions play well and are easy to remember.
The truth is that I only built this app for fun (first version was made to return the closest bar to each tweets from a specific friend) and curiosity (Node+Twitter+FourSquare) and when it began to get "bigger", someone suggested me to use a "real" design, with a logo, a presence, etc...
I'm no designer but using Illustrator to get something quickly was a nice break from emacs. The arrow was completely inspired by the FedEx logo (though by bad memory, it ended up being a bit different) and the colors were only ran through a "can I look at it more than five minutes without my eyes burning" test. But if you want to submit a better logo, I'll gladly take it =)
They were supposed to scroll down to these parts of the page but they became useless since the page fits in one screen. I will remove them on the next push. Thanks :)
