Flocking
Flocking is a mobile application that allows its users to discover and share fleeting events occurring nearby.
We are so overscheduled that we even schedule our free time. We don't know how to be spontaneous.
Flocking allows users to pivot throughout their day. It provides a platform for users to chose what they want to do, when they have the time to do it. It is a guide for explorers, letting them discover all the exciting events they are near and giving them a chance to experience them before they are gone for good.
Community members post about events they are attending, while others vote on what is most appealing to them. This provides users of the application with a real time map of all the popular events presently taking place nearby.
