Spynnr

Submitted by Will on Sunday, 31 August 2008No Comment

sypnnr.jpgI want to give a quick update concerning the Startup Weekend Memphis event we had here a while back. We had a lot of fun. Plenty of activity - and ups and downs. Excellent sponsors and local support.

Several interesting ideas were actually launched that weekend, and several are still in development.

The official project we launched is called “Spynnr”. It is a Facebook application that facilitates pick-up sporting events. It helps people find suitable opponents (based on skill, location, etc) and set up your game. I like the app’s capability to match opponents in order to maximize the best game play- and therefore create a game that is more fun for all participants.
