Can cellphones improve people's social experience in real-life?
Observation
People take phones with them
Phones can store/exchange more information
Multi-2-Multi communication is easy for phones
Why mobile social apps fail?
They share too little info: users just see a bunch of people on the phone and start to chat about weather.
They share too much info: users end up turn off every privacy option.
Our approach
Users tag themselves
Encrypt the info, so others can only check matching, not recover it.
Tag and tag list
Contacts, music, Facebook profile, …
Reduce input
Increase matching probability
User contributed tag list
Location/service aware tag list
Privacy
It's practically impossible to recover the information
Web UI
Cross-platform UI is web
