WH@M

With the growth of social media over the last decade, individuals have had never-before-seen abilities to interact and maintain contact with the world around them. Social networks easily expanded from those in close proximity to across the globe without significant increases in the complexity or hassle of communication between acquaintances.

However, current social networks rely on a network of known friends and/or contacts. Members of a social network are essentially required to at least be acquainted with each other before it is possible to actually utilize the social network to coordinate a meeting between those members.

As a result, connections between persons in the same geographic area with substantial commonalities are missed every day simply because no common acquaintance was present to identify the connection possibility. How does one know whether a former college classmate or someone from your hometown is in your immediate vicinity, whether that be at the theater, on top of Mt. Washington, or just down the block?

Introducing WH@M, the app that will help you build connections with people that share your interests and who are in close geographic proximity to you.
