The Swarm

Today, people relationships have been evolving quite rapidly recently. If the e-mail has, despite its many flaws, changed the way people communicate, other disruptive new uses like online dating, adult dating, social networking (professional: LinkedIn; friends on MySpace; hobbies, wine lovers, foodies, beer lovers etc.), IMs (allowing you to let people know whether you’re available or not and leave small notes to the attention of your contacts) have sort of opened new paths to getting to know new people, or helping you keep in touch with people you already know. In this perspective, here’s something new, both a device and a software.

The Swarm, a software for mobile devices soon to revolutionize relationships between people, basically allows you to tell your contacts what you’re doing (eg. “In a meeting”; or “I’m driving, not so convenient to pick up the phone”), whether you’re available (”I’m sunbathing on the beach so call back tonight please”) and when you’ll be available (”Free on Saturday night”). You may also separate your professional and private contacts, interface easily the software with your regular digital address book, etc.more
