David: "Affiliates and 3rd parties are a big part of the strategy moving ahead - simply because we are launching a global platform and the vision is that as soon as someone gets off the plane, it knows where you are and reacts accordingly"

Me: "Do you think there is benefit launching after the tech valuation reset or do you see it as more of a negative for start ups?.."

David: "Honestly I think that heading into a market (global tech I mean) that has just had a lot of the recent growth based on "hope and hype" rather than fundamentals is a great market to launch in - valuations of potential investments get right-sized, cost of labour drops back in pace and becomes more available - for what we do it couldn't have come at a better time - just my opinion anyway"

Seems like a platform that may enable decentralised services apps that share similar business models and functionality with a twist of behavioural intelligence thrown in to create a sort of learned personal assistant on your mobile. It could be the real life grown up version of FB because let's face it.. How many of your friends on FB are you really truly friends with? A grown ups FB for living and interacting and purchasing and paying securely for goods and services all on the one app/platform.
May be the umbrella which encompasses private and group communication cross platform which can post to SM sites for you as well as integrate various other value adding features as mentioned and predictively learn.
Big job to extract and process the volume of data required for seamless purposeful use and analytics/performance tracking.. Global launch..
Convergence I tell you.
Con-Ver-Gence!
