FriendThem App Lets You Connect to Facebook Users All Around You
Christopher DeLuca — June 21, 2011 — Tech
The FriendThem app is an ingenious way to connect to the people all around you. The concept behind the app is that people come across connections all the time -- whether it be on the subway, at the grocery store, or somewhere else -- but have no way of connecting with them and they fade away. The app lets you immediately find and connect to the people around without having to search for their name.
The FriendThem app is a brilliant way to grow your Facebook network and what I particularly like is how easy it is to use. Who knows what kind of serendipitous magic will result from you downloading the app and connecting with the people all around you.
