Abstract/Artist Statement
The Match Me app is a social networking application that focuses on bringing people together based on location and interests. The focus of the application is on providing an easy way for members to find others with similar interests, to meet up with wherever they may be. This application will provide an easy way to index and find others with similar interests, and will enable communication via in app messaging and email. There will be authorization protocols to allow members to screen who they want to communicate with and block those they do not want to communicate with. The revenue model for this application is targeted advertisements based on interests and location, in order to provide activities, such as clubs, conventions, concerts, movies, and sporting events, for members to participate in. This application is built on a base of PHP, using a mix of HTML 5, CSS 3, and JavaScript to provide a secure environment for members to manage and communicate with others. All major functions are managed server side, leaving a light weight dynamic application for members to quickly navigate while looking for others to socialize with.
