The difference is that, the app enables to manage events, whether public or private. You can use it to organize a party, and find events in your city and send out invites to random subset of your contacts. Kind of a social potluck

Thanks for providing your feedback.

- We're using Facebook as the conduit to sign up for the app, and we're hoping that encourages user.

- Our "angle", is social potluck. First, the user categorizes their contacts in groups depending on how well the know them (besties, pals, acquaintances and so on). Then, the user can send an event invite (can be public or private) to one or more groups of contacts. At that point, the invites are sent out to a random set of people in that group and the first ones to accept get to attend the invite.

My making it social potluck, the app makes it more likely that you'll meet up with contacts you might not otherwise make the effort to meet, or might find it a bit too forward to invite.

- we're going to a name that would stick in the mind. something that would be fun to say as well...

Skuuddle is an app that aims to expand your active social circle. The app does it by mining your phonebook/Facebook contacts. You can categorize people into groups depending on how well you know them.

When you're making a plan to do something (throw a party, go see a movie or gig, for example), you can send out an invite to whichever group you choose. At that point, invites are sent out randomly (you can also choose instead to handpick who you invite) to those in that group. It's kind of like social potluck. Let serendipity choose who you end up hanging out with.

The app collates your phonebook/Facebook contacts and you can create your own groups! You can create groups for people who are good friends, besties or acquaintances. So when you're making a plan to do something, you can send out an invite to whichever group you choose. At that point, invites are sent out randomly (you can also choose instead to handpick who you invite) to those in that group. It's kind of like social potluck. Let serendipity choose who you end up hanging out with.

Yep, that's exactly what it is.

Great feedback! thanks!

We're going to rework the messaging to make it simpler, clearer and more straightforward. and yes, a video is something that would go a long way in explaining the app. have downloaded the app? WOuld love it if you used the app and let us know how we could improve it! cheers

Exactly! People have, on average, 338 friends on facebook. That's a good pool of contacts who are easier to vet, right?

But it's not about getting users to talk to strangers. The app is only meant to help you do stuff with people you already know, but are not necessarily good friends... in other words, people you might have only met a couple of times and find interesting enough to want to catch up with.

How many of us actually catch up with our facebook friends who are not already part of our friend circle? Yet, your facebook friends list is already packed with people who you know (some well. some not so well). So it's a great place to start to expand your social circle and do stuff with people outside your usual groups of friends. The point of the app is to get people to meet up face to face, and your phonebook/facebook contacts are a good place to start, right?

That's really helpful feedback. We're going to rework the content on the website and make it simpler, more straightforward. Cheers.

Thanks for your feedback, and point taken.

It was definitely fun to build the app, but also quite challenging. More than differentiating ourselves from other social networking sites (or being another one), we're trying to make it easier for users to get offline and meet up in person.

In regards to the privacy policy, we needed to make it more comprehensive to protect users from abuse, as much as possible. Moreover, App store has fairly stringent standards for privacy policy which needed to be met.

I hope you try the app! We would love your feedback on the app itself, as well as the idea
