The Funware Blog @ rmbr

Haven’t you always wanted a better way to “friend” people you meet in real time? Consider: the business card is wasteful and requires data entry post-meeting. Writing down a number leaves you prone to losing the scrap of paper. And entering phone numbers (or, GASP! whole address book entries) in real time after a meet-up will leave you scratching your head (”Who’s that?”) or punching the air (”God, that took forever”).  

Besides, it’s an unavoidable conclusion that meeting people in real-life, and making new friends (activity partners, etc) is  one of the world’s oldest games, and its most enjoyable. Most of the people who say they don’t play games (or get accused of doing so), actually relish this little bit of entertainment. 

So, it’s with great excitement that we announce the launch of rmbrME. rmbrME gives you the power to send a socially-networked friend request to anyone you meet in real life using just SMS.  When you meet someone in real life, simply send their phone number or email address to 762763 (RMBRME) and they will receive an instant invitation to connect to you on any/every social network (FB, Myspace, Linkedin, etc) you choose. The services works with all mobile phones, carriers and social networks and requires no downloads or subscriptions. 

You can now check out the site at rmbrME.com and sign up for your account. Let us know what you think! I’ll update the blog periodically with news coverage of our launch and more info about the site. There’s also a ton of additional Funware news to come, so stay tuned!
