Whrrl
What makes you unique? Do you enjoy cheeseburgers? indie music? mountain biking? fashion? What if you had a robot that could learn your individual tastes, passions and interests so it could recommend relevant places to go, ideas to try and groups to join? What if your robot could give you an excuse to hang out more with your friends?
Teach Whrrlbot what makes you unique: check in, want-to ideas and join Whrrl Societies. See Whrrlbot generate recommendations specifically for you.
***NOTE: Whrrl now alerts you about nearby Want Tos and friends who have checked in nearby. You will notice the location status indicator always appears in your status bar. This does NOT consume any additional battery power. See http://ow.ly/4dyUT for more.***
