Google has covered all the bases when it comes to apps — it's hard to think of a mobile software category the company doesn't have an offering in — but its engineers are still spinning out new ideas. The latest to see the light of day is called Who's Down, although for the time being you're going to need an invite before you can start using it. The App is accessible only by invite; the app aims to make meeting up with friends easier by quickly seeing who's available — and more importantly willing — to hang out. The app does this by giving users a switch they can flip whenever they're down to hang, setting a time period and waiting for friends to do the same. You can even chat with friends willing to meet up via a conversation window within the app. Google hasn't yet declared anything official about the app, so it may be an experiment. It's an interesting idea though and could give the tech giant a small foothold in the social networking space that it's been trying so hard to get into.
