It seems that in today's world communication with those around us has become ever more simple and "dime a dozen" social networks have appeared everywhere. Yet all of these communication platforms are missing something very important, to make communicating with those around you simple. The idea came to me around 7 months ago when I was sitting in class watching fellow students using social networks
such as Facebook and Twitter. It was then that I started to realize that many of the people they talk to, follow, or even glance at are either many miles away or strangers to them. It was at this moment Lobby was born. Unlike many of the current social networks used today, Lobby takes the approach of communication differently. Users download the app onto a supported device, create an account, and are instantly able to communicate with everyone else around them who has also downloaded Lobby. They can view everyone in their surrounding area, send messages, and even view how compatible they are based on commonly shared 'likes'. The main purpose for Lobby is to allow users to join or create 'lobbies' to communicate with others in their local proximity. From there all the joined users can talk to each other on anything, such as every student in a school being able to talk to every other person there. Lobby is communication with the people around you simplified.
