He is referring to if you were all on the same wifi network (and on the same subnet on that network), you could broadcast, catch that broadcast on a listening device and then ping back with coordinates pulled from GPS.
You still need GPS and now you need to be on the same Wifi network. That idea would only be useful if you were deploying this in a single company where everyone is able to be on the same network together. If you are going to release it to the public and let people (that are strangers on different carriers) know they are near each other, the way I listed is the only way I know you could do it.
