Verizon Wireless and Loopt announced today that Verizon Wireless customers can now access Loopt’s interoperable location-based service.

Loopt helps friends connect on the go and navigate their social lives by orienting them to people, places and events. Users can also choose to permit sharing of location updates, geo-tagged photos and comments with friends in their mobile address book or on online social networks, communities and blogs.
Loopt is available today on select Verizon Wireless phones for $3.99 monthly access in the Tools on the Go, Featured Applications and Community shopping aisles in the Get It Now virtual store.
Customers need a Get It Now-enabled handset and Verizon Wireless digital service to access the Get It Now virtual store.
