iFob Description

iFob can be considered a small key chain thing you put in your pocket Fob is software which turns iPhones & laptops into wireless Icebreaking Beacons.You download iFob and then take about 30 seconds to put in your tagline, something like, "I like coffee," and then when you go anyplace where other people have iFob installed on their iPhones or laptops, your "I am Here" taglines get exchanged with each other.iFob isn't a MySpace, dating or a Facebook site. iFob is not a site at all. With iFob all the virtual crud and un-reality disappears because the broadcasting and receiving is ultra close by and local: people only see taglines of others who are in the same physical places. "See," means that your iFob software will light up and show a list of all the other iFobs who are right there, right now, in the same hotspot.A definition of Fob is any small key chain thing you put in your pocket. The "i" is because it is for iPhone and iPod and you and i. Of course iFob works on PCs and Macs too, but iPC sounded too much like "I am P.C.", which you and I are not.Here are some key features of "iFob":· Public Taglines that any iFob user can see.· Add more detailed public information about yourself.· Add additional private information that you can chose which iFob users may see.· Chat with other iFob users who are in the same hotspot.· Is not a web site: iFob is software that is installed on your iPhone, iPod or laptop.· Mark other iFob users as "interesting" if you would like to pay attention to in the future.· Visual and sound indicators when other iFob users come into the room.· Block iFob users based on whether or not they are boring so you will never be bored by them again.· Versions for iPod touch, iPhone, Windows PCs and Mac Intel laptops.· Works with any wireless network which your iPod, iPhone or laptop can connect with.· iPod and iPhone version are 100% free.· No subscription fees.· No advertising or any other kind of hassleware.· iFob is extremely easy to use.· Ultra simple "profiles" with no required fields.· No having to define categories for yourself.Requirements:· iPhone What's New in This Release: · Unified look-and feel of other Apple approved native iPhone software apps. · Tight integration of image inclusion for adding custom Avatars and Graphics to your iFob profiles. · Ability to real-space-real-time locate other willing iFob users from GPS-like cell-tower triangulation. · Just for fun, a new graphical slider UI to indicate how you think of yourself: Boring?
