Ever wanted to really get to know the people with whom you are trapped, encased in a tin can hurtling through the sky for any number of hours? Me neither, but this app is offering it anyway!
Like the app Wingman before them, ‘One-stop’ travel app Quicket just came out with an update that includes a social “check-in” option, so passengers can “check in” using their Facebook accounts and, what gauge the attractiveness of their fellow passengers? See if they have any mutual friends? Bond over their mutual “Liking” of How I Met Your Mother?” and Incubus? Obviously passengers don’t have to subject themselves to this nonsense—the social check-in is opt-in only. Huffington Post explains:
You can do so anonymously (without providing your name), or you can provide only your name, or you can post your name and a link to your Facebook profile. Then, your seatmate will be able to surf your profile and study all those juicy travel pics for plenty of pre-planned inflight conversation.
