Switchboard Messenger

Switchboard is the app for discovering the amazing people on your college campus.

Chat up a midnight philosopher, grab a spontaneous meal, get academic support, or finally talk to that person you’ve silently passed in the hall every morning. Chatting is one-on-one and anonymous – for as long as you want it to be. Did we mention it’s free? Download Switchboard today and meet your new friends!

Switchboard was built at Swarthmore College in 2015, and registration is currently limited to students at Swarthmore College.

How it works:

Starting a chat is as simple as clicking a board, and then sending a message. The Operator takes care of the rest. You can only be in one chat at a time.

Joining a board allows you to receive a conversation on that board whenever you’re available.

Join as many boards as you like, and change them on the fly. Looking for a friend for your allnighter? Join #niteowl, and then leave when your paper is done.You can connect to boards you haven’t joined - someone in #engin can always make a friend in #art.

Block users you don't want to talk to again. Report users who break the rules.

Go offline when you don’t want to be messaged - like when you’re in class. Remember to come back online!
