How it works

"Putting Social back into Media"

We've all been there: You walk into the club, bar, classroom. And see that special person. But Social Media has made us uncomfortable talking to strangers. What if you ask for their number and get rejected?
Instead, just poke them. They will see your picture, and probably look around for you. If they poke you back, you have your ice breaker, and approaching each other is risk free.
