What if you could leave a message for someone anyplace on Earth?
Dropp (and the rise of “MicroSocial”)
This is bloody genius!
Whenever writer Christopher Fowler does a post on his blog about a London spot or location he’s used in his Bryant & May series, I keep thinking, “Bloody hell. How will I remember that? And if I’m ever in London, I wouldn’t want to impose on Chris for a tour.”
Dropp is the answer. He could make Dropps that would alert me when I’m near one of those locations and I’d know.
And all those locations used in Rubicon that I posted about? If I had an iPhone, I could make Dropps so people would know when they’ve hit such a spot.
This is really exciting software. It layers intelligence over the world.
If you like this, there is also Repudo, which enables you to leave all kind of digital files (including e-books for example): http://www.repudo.com/
Dropp is not the first iPhone app to do this. Check out http://www.repudo.com. We’ve already been using it to drop ebooks (for everyone, or for a selected number of people).
Thanks for the writeup, Mike! We’re committed to making Dropp as useful as can be. Right now since we just released it, we’re working on bug-fixes for the next couple of releases, but then we’ll be rolling out great new features/partnerships that will make Dropp the best app of its kind.
I’ll give Dropp a go, Mike. And I don’t mind doing tours. I’m quite used to it!
