The essential app for every conference you attend – MeetingMatch. I’m not overly social. Walking up to people and starting a random conversation isn’t on my top ten list. I love talking to people on LinkedIn though. I get their resume and some of the things they’ve shared in the past and immediately know how our lives intersect. I’ve often found myself at a conference wishing it was 5 years in the future. That I had Google Glass linked to LinkedIn and it was recognizing every face I look at and instantly feeding me the information I need to understand why I might want to talk to someone. The first iteration of that technology is here @MeetingMatch. |
