Is the idea for users to be able to share photos with friends they're actually hanging out with, or for them to connect with people they don't know nearby?

@beckerjs It's to help people start conversations with people they don't know who are nearby. Easy way to get in touch with everyone at an event, etc.

@thomasmeagher Ha! I suppose we have to fit it all into X meets Y and there are only so many options that people know. :)

@thomasmeagher Quickly looked over it. Couldn't really do much as I'm not at any of those schools. Seems quite different, despite the tagline similarity.

@shinsyotta agree, the similarities stop at the tagline.

Awesome concept! Is it like "Fling" but more location specific and more along the lines of connecting people nearby, rather than around the world?

Nearest5 is the fresh new way to communicate and make new friends. Share photos with the five nearest people in the app. You can also rebroadcast photos to another 5 nearest people. Then chat with those that have engaged with your photos.

Personally, I think it's great. I am biased, though. :)
