Find out what people are saying around you. Right now.

Instant location based bulletin board. No account creation, no hassle. Contribute to the conversation, like posts, and configure your search options.

When you decide to make posts, they are tagged with your device key and your devices location. This is so that everyone in the area can see whats up, but, importantly, they dont actually know who you are. You can choose to change your nickname on the option screen, however, so other users do see that.

Another key feature of the app is liking posts. This lets people know how popular or accurate your post might be. There is also the ability to flag posts as vulgar or inappropriate. Behind the scenes, the app is keeping score of these ratings (and the devices responsible), and is applying a few rules. This means that devices may be blocked from posting or spamming, perhaps in the short term, but also the long term. So be a good neighbor.
