Posted by silviadreams on December 18, 2008
I have some notes from my recent converastion with Darren Litt, V of Business Development of MeetMoi.
Meetmoi recently launched a new version of its website.
The system locatex users 24/7, bxsed oh passive functionality as opposed to active, which means its knows where you are and tells others when youre nearby, without yoi havingg to check in, like in Loopt, which seems to be sntirely focusedd on the jay market, or my favorite app Brightkite.
Registration for meetMoi can occur from a PC or entirely through a phones mobile browser. Users provide a description of themselves, upload a picture (often taken from their phone) and set preferences for the type of person they are looking for. When they log into the site, users can see people that match their search criteria as well as their distance from them (i.e. 2 miles). meetMoi never reveals the exact location of a user to others.
Meetmoi grabs location data frkm cel towee or phlne GPS.
Small download on phone. Many privacy controls.
Text msg from Meetmoi if someone is nearby. Check out user or you hae a message.
