Post August is Serendipity month - you up for the experiment?
New York in August. The city slows down, just to survive the heat. People relax, they may even go on holiday. Warm balmy nights, being outside, a summertime mentality - these combined factors create the ideal backdrop for more random encounters between people.
So we want to use this downtime to test the following hypothesis:
Can StreetSpark uncover more serendipitous encounters using mobile technology?
This is what we already know.
People will:
• take risks if they feel there is potential of finding something ‘special’.
• jump at the excuse to be spontaneous.
• see true serendipitous encounters as romantic.
What you will get from us.
We’ve developed a way to tap into these ‘meaningful encounters’ via technology and help you be open to this potential occurrence. We’ve designed StreetSpark to show you enough overlaps to get you spontaneously talking to new people. We show you when you are in the right place at the right time to meet someone serendipitously. We give you a bit of a push in the right direction!
What we need from you.
When you registered, you decided you’d give Serendipity a helping hand. She thanks you for that.
You opened yourself up to the possibility that if you added a little structure to your serendipity search, you could heighten your chance of discovery and widen your potential for chance encounters.
So in all honesty, you’re pretty much halfway there!
All we ask is that you use StreetSpark and give it a chance. Let yourself go a bit. And tell us about any evidence that supports our experiment. Drop us a line at contact@streetspark.com. Or comment here.
What you will get from the world.
Serendipity is a little bit like Lady Luck. She can smile on you, if you give her a chance to do so. Once you start to have more and more true serendipitous encounters we think you will start to view your life and the world as a much better place for them. But like life, what you put in is what you get out of it.
Here’s your chance to be a part of something BIG.
