Dating to the Cave of the Hands 7300 BC in Argentina, it's a fundamental human desire to inscribe meanings onto places, to leave messages for late-comers, to say "I was here. I experienced this."
However, mainstream social platforms today tend to detach us from the physical world. This is because they are time-based, not place-based.
When the world is shouting "Right Now," we say "Right Here"!
We hope to re-establish the connection to the physical world in the digital realm. In this new location-based AR social app focused on "here" instead of "now," users plant messages for friends or general public in their current location, discover messages from old and new friends within a certain distance range (start at 10m, grow with more likes, views, and replies), and partake in large-scale public discourses around them.
