Great article. Until about a month ago, I would have agreed with you whole-heartedly. What changed? The introduction of WhosHere by myRete. You should try WhosHere. See if it changes your mind. It’s a free download from the App Store. WhosHere is a classic example of an application taking advantage of the network effect. The software is a free proximity networking app that is relevant to what you are trying to do right now. With WhosHere you can do any of the following in real time with other users who are live or offline: - Look for a date, - Meet face to face with another user who happens to be close by, - Getting that last minute ticket to the sold out game, or - Tell the WhosHere universe what you are doing right now.

I dont know how many of you have it, but if you dont you should get it. Its a social networking ap, but it is as simple as can be. And it automatically finds people who are online within a certain radius of you. I had a beer last night with a girl I just met on there two days ago! Try and spread the popularity of this ap, as it is well worth the FREE pricetag. Unless theres a similar ap that is better, this is the best social networking ap on right now.

WhosHere helps you meet people near you with similar interests. It takes the chance out of the chance encounter! Simply fill out your profile and indicate the age and gender of the person you would like to meet. WhosHere will show you the people closest to you that match that description. WhosHere's proprietary search features almost always find someone matching your description and, as more people use it, the distances from you will get smaller and smaller. When you find someone you want to talk with you can text message them within WhosHere itself. There are no SMS fees and there is absolutely no need to give out your phone number, email or IM address. That is unless you want to…and meet that new friend or special someone. WhosHere is now at 40,000 users.
