John, there are quite a few Android apps that do what I think you're after, MyTracks, GPSTracker, Glympse - GPS based apps seem to be a popular choice of project for the app developer!

just downloaded Glympse... how useful could that be...
have you tried it...?

It's superb, my mate visited last weekend and I got him to send me a 2 hour Glympse before he left so I could track his progress, I could see when he was stuck in traffic and what progress he was making so I knew when to start the food and move the car etc etc. It's due out on the Blackberry too and I'll be glad when it is so I can get my other half to send me a Glympse when she's out with the girls (I do worry).

so how does it work then?

you get a text.
whats in the text... links to a website???
i aint been able to try it yet.

You can choose to send the 'Glympse' to a mobile number as a text, or to an email address, either way the recipient gets a hyperlink to the website where they can monitor the progress of whoever sent them the glympse.
