Moot.no - Social Interaction through Your Mobile and PC

Moot is a new software that allows users to communicate with each other using their PC or mobile phone. Through the Moot Arena, Mooters can see other users in their area, known as their Local Moot Network. The user’s own icon is highlighted, thus illustrating the proximity to the other users. Users can click on the other Mooters’ icons to instantly download their content to see what the other Mooters are all about. When users choose to view each other’s content, they allowed a look at the other users’ videos, images, audio, and various other information. Mooters also have the ability to initiate a chat session with other users.

“Moot is a brand new way to share and communicate using your mobile phone or PC. Moot is 100% free and with no catches. Moot is a piece of social software that brings you together with other people who share the same location – a local service for local people. It works at home,at school or on the move. When Moot is on, new impulses and possibilities will come your way, for example when you’re walking down the street or taking the bus home – new impulses will come your way through interaction with other Mooters. Share, chat and express yourself – locally – for free – with no catches.”

Moot is a fun new social networking tool with an element of geographic relativity. It brings the social networking to life, as the other users that can be connected to are all close in proximity. Whether Moot will take off as a successful network is yet to be seen, as the functions are basic.

Could Moot develop an application to link to existing social networks? What additional information could be used to link Mooters? How may the visuals of the tool be enhanced?
