Highlight Automates Social Networking

Social networking websites and apps have changed a lot about how people interact, both online and in the physical world.  People make their information readily available online through public profiles on many different sites.  Because of this reality, people can find out much more about those they meet as many details about a person are available in their numerous online profiles.  Social networking has also changed professional networking.  People use sites like LinkedIn to find potential business contacts that could be helpful to them and for investigating contacts they’ve already met at events like conferences.  However, this level of convenience isn’t enough for cool product in technology Highlight.  Highlight believes social networking can be easier still—automatic even.  With this cool product, people can connect with others just by walking by them on the street or being in the same building.  Highlight uses GPS technology within people’s smartphones to locate and identify people that users may want to connect with when they are nearby.  Anyone who has a malfunctioning GPS function in his or her mobile device will need smartphone computer repair before he or she is able to take advantage of Highlight.

When Highlight is active on a user’s phone, it detects people nearby and provides their profile information to the user if it is relevant to him or her.  For example, if a friend of a friend walks by in a store, Highlight might notify a user in case they want to connect.  Highlight also works for professional purposes.  When people using Highlight meet others who are in a professional position to help or collaborate with them, the app notifies you so you can view their profiles and connect further.  Highlight could be especially helpful at professional conferences, as it could allow people to make meaningful professional connections during the event.  Users who believe they are not getting notifications from Highlight properly may have an issue with their smartphones and need mobile IT support.

Highlight lets users determine who can see their profile when they are out of the house as to not affect their privacy.  The app also allows them to turn off the feature for certain times and situations where they don’t want others viewing their information.

If this cool product catches on, it could once again change how people interact and connect both digitally and in the real world, just as popular social networking websites have already managed to do over the last decade.
