ambadoo

meet > keep in touch

based on a true story

In the old world, when people went to a conference they brought a pack of business cards. Everyone did. Why? It’s obvious right, they wanted to stay in touch after the event was over.

Prior to the event everyone had to have those business cards printed – in worst case, hideous designs just to get it done, cause what happens if you met somebody you wanted to keep in touch with but you had no card? No business!

During the conference, the same people had to carry two bunches of business cards. In one pocket their own cards, and in another pocket the received ones. Some people even divided the received ones in two pockets. Left pocket for cards to save, right pocket to throw. Or the other way around.

After the conference they all went back to their offices, with those newly conquered  business cards. Some of them sat down to order them, others just built stacks – depending on personality. In recent years some people even bothered to digitalize those business cards to have available in their Outlook, conveniently.

Time changes, they say.

In an ambadoo world, you just go to your conference, unconference or whatever you’d like, bring your mobile, with ambadoo installed. You start talking to someone interesting and decide that you’d want to keep in touch.

On the fly, over-the-air you share your ambadoo profiles with each other, and you’re connected, with all relevant contact details and all it took was a click.

You’d expect more steps? Sorry to disappoint you.

This is the first of a few user stories we’re working on at the moment, and will be demoed tomorrow afternoon. Stay tuned.
