Slipper

Thanks for posting, @eriktorenberg! Slipper is a new app for missed connections. I started working on Slipper because I've long been a fan of the missed connections section on Craigslist. Each post provides a genuine glimpse at human action (or inaction) and the resulting vulnerabilities. However, I've been frustrated with the ineffectiveness of the current system. The ultimate disappointment of missed connections currently lies in the fact that most posts die a quiet death in the endless internet ether. Slipper takes on this challenge through algorithms that continuously match posts to people. We determine the probability that each post is about each of our users, or that a user may recognize the target of the post. If the algorithms provide a strong signal, we send the user a push notification telling them to check out the relevant post. Our servers are continuously calculating these probabilities to create a fresh experience each time the app is opened. We've put some serious work in behind the scenes, and we've already heard about a few real-life Cinderella stories from our private beta users, so we can't wait to hear what you all think. You can download the app from the App Store here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/... Thanks in advance!
