There is a glut of social networking services that lets you share your everyday moments with your friends and family wherever they maybe in the world. But sorely lacking from this picture is the ability to setup an instant channel of communication among total strangers in close proximity who are all interested in a common goal and have no reason to persist this temporary arrangement by opening up their personal lives. The reasons could be as frivolous as an impromptu flash mob, volume discount at a nearby store or as serious as an organized demonstration.

We believe providing the ability for individuals to form groups of people in close proximity opens the door to a myriad possibilities of teamwork. In the glut of social networking services the power of the anonymous collective is being ignored.

The ability to organize a mobile network in real time and broadcast information will allow various entities like emergency first responders, law enforcement, indie radio station, universities and other organizations to rapidly disseminate information within a geographical area without having to first find a medium to inform users about the location of a specific Twitter channel or Facebook page. Instant real time audio,video and text broadcasting at everyone’s fingertips.

Create a messaging medium anywhere, anytime for anything and disseminate information! Information stays local and users anonymous!. Just like your local radio station, you tune in and tune out when out of range or flip to a different channel.

I could see using something like this. tennis tonight at Woodcroft courts, need one more for doubles match. Intermediate. or I-275 North, traffic jam due to overturned semi truck.

It's anonymous? Forget what I wrote, it will be more like this: Guy seeks naughty-girl for a good time at I-275 rest-stop 9:00, strike that... make it 9:30, there's a semi overturned.

The idea is an interesting one, but have you considered all the ways it could be used and are you cool with that?
