Meeting people with similar interests on an International basis just got a whole lot easier and more fun thanks to the 'November' app. The app works by providing users with five audio interviews each day, which were done by other people just like them with similar interests and hobbies. These interviews can be listened to like podcasts with users capable of sending a message to the person after they've had a listen to discuss similar interests.
The 'November' app takes a new approach to online socialization and puts the user in the spotlight in a decidedly personal way. This could develop into more authentic connections with people that the user might not otherwise interact with or meet during their daily routine.
