Minder
Mobile dating apps, like tinder or POF (Plenty Of Fish), have become more and more popular over the last years. The concept of online dating is starting to influence other sectors of human relations. One attempt was the establishment of the employment website Emjoyment. Although this website did not have the expected success, we were thinking about ways to connect strategies of online dating with the scientific world.
Our solution is minder. An android app that allows you to present your scientific idea to the world, read the ideas of others and get in contact with people to discuss and create projects. An idea consists of one sentence. In its first version, minder will show you ideas from other users based on tags selected by you. You can decide if you like an idea by selecting the like or dislike button. A third button, for reporting an idea, is used for quality control. If you like an idea, you reach a page with a brief description of the idea and a way to get in contact with the user. The second version of minder will include a chat function to establish immediate contact between all users who like an idea.
Minder cooperates with ideaweave, a website for people to brainstorm and create projects together. Ideas in minder correspond to challenges in ideaweave. A challenge consists of a short title and a brief description. It allows people to discuss about it and create projects regarding the challenge. Users of minder are automatically registered in the ideaweave database, enabling them to create challenges and projects on the website. On the other hand, the challenges in ideaweave can be incorporated in minder as ideas. This cooperation helps both platforms to gain accessibility and users.
Minder is our attempt to connect people with great ideas and to help them in the process of building a project.
You can find the source code for minder on GitHub.
