In this paper, a real-time location tracing application has been discussed to cater the needs of the people who distinctly and constantly want to stay connected with their peers as well as it can be used in disaster management situations. It is developed on the BlackBerry platform provided by RIM(Research In Motion) which is a highly secure platform and is used to mitigate security risks. The application is integrated with Blackberry Messenger which has a large number of social networking users which is a value added feature of this application. The function of this project is to trace a number of people even in an environment buzzing with hoards of people. This application will also provide the user with features such as data-sharing, forming and managing groups, communities and other location based services.
