www.flobbi-portal.de - Bluetooth Social Networking

Flobbi is a Bluetooth based social network. To get it to work, you’ll first have to download Flobbi to your cell phone. Once downloaded, whenever someone in the Flobbi network is in your proximity (within 20 meters), that person’s profile will flash on your screen. You’ll have the option to chat, and get to know each other as fellow Flobbers. Installing Flobbi can be done in one of three ways: register and download it over Bluetooth, have the software sent over to your mobile, or via a friend who has Flobbi and Bluetooth. The software and portal is cost free.

“You want to use Flobbi? Then become a Flobber!
Your cellphone just got better! Chat for free to nearby friends using Flobbi software and bluetooth. Make the fun computer virtual community experience a real experience with Flobbi”.

This definitely takes social networking out of the box and into the street. People won’t be trapped by the confines of etherspace, which means they can actually meet new friends and have real coffee, or go see an actual movie at the cinema, or they can simply enjoy a face to face chat. Plus, Flobbi members will always know when their friends are around.

Is this safe? Will people actually want to have their whereabouts publicly known? What's up with the site name?
