TTYL: An Innovative Social Platform for College Students

Participants: Jenny Lam, Javier Saez, Will Sauser, Isaiah Barnes

TTYL is a social platform where college students can meet new and different people they may never have met otherwise. Students can search for other students with similar hobbies, tastes, or interests and meet up with them at certain locations on or off campus. They may rate the person based on their experience and set up events with them in the future. The key feature of this app is that the app bases itself on anonymity— there are no public profiles that can identify people individually. This will ensure that people who may never have been approached before ( perhaps because of their physical appearance, social status, or even gender) will now have an opportunity to bypass social barriers and connect to a variety of other people.
