What a brilliant idea! I’m surprised people went for something so silly, but in the safe space of a BarCamp, it’s not entirely surprising. How can we make such objects comfortable inside less well-defined spaces?

Additional thoughts migrated from Addatweet

@Simplygrey

It would also B nice if U didn’t need 2 use @addatweet add-in 4 comments 2B shown here.

@jaycousins

this could be an awesome tool for collaborating on online workspaces.

direct mailing option on conversations would be helpful to prevent over pollution of twit stream.

Authority could maybe related to shared followers, or shared site interests rather than purely number of followers.

Hi Alice

It certainly follows on from those themes and conversations.

I’d like to avoid bluetooth or any technology that’s not immediately accessible by all, with respect to this particular experiment as then it’s non exclusive and not restricted in terms of users by technology.

I’ve consciously avoided any kind of prompts as to begin with, we need to see how people would actually react. It’s likely that some will perceive it as weird, and some wont (like hitch hiking), and it won’t be used by everybody at first. However by making it available to everybody in public, visible space, we increase the chance of the technology being adopted.

If additional technologies (or words, phrases and rules in this instance) are required then we can add them as we go.

I like the idea of this, but the question for me is how do you allow this to retain its ‘innocence’ and not become something perceived as being a bit weird. I’d be interested to know how you could take the awkwardness out of the ‘I’d like a chat’ message by perhaps using gaming and or bluetooth alerts as a way into a conversation. This is something I know we’ve talked about before in a different context in the commuters connect idea we were looking at together last year…

Still think there’s something in this! (But then I would say that wouldn’t I?)
