Project 3 Process
After my presentation, Emily brought up very good points about my idea. I think there’s a lot of pieces that it can include, but I wanted to keep it simple for now. I think loading it up with a lot of extras wouldn’t be right for now, just because it is a new idea. There were a lot of questions about it being kind of rude to remind people to call people, and that if you really wanted to talk to them you would remember. I don’t think this is that big of a problem, because my audience is college kids or business people who are literally so busy they just plain forget. Plus, if you have a lot of people in your life, sometimes your brain just doesn’t remember things that aren’t work or school.
My favorite precedent study that I have found is Snapchat’s “Need Love” feature. This feature shows you people that either you haven’t Snapped in a while or someone that just hasn’t been snapped by many people in a while. This is the closest and most relevant thing I have found that relates to my Connect Me app. There isn’t much out there, but I know the technology exists.
