Social networking services have become an important source to store individual information. Geolocation on web based social network can be IP-based or used hotspot trilateration. A recent addition to this space, social networking such as Yelp or Foursquare, collects some user locations, through check-ins performed by users at visited venues. Overtly, individual information allows social networking providers to offer a different type of applications, including individual recommendations and targeted advertising, and venue owners to promote their business through the spatio-temporal incentives. Without individual people may be reluctant to use social networking; without user information the provider not able to use applications and have no incentive to associate in social networking services.
