That's an excellent idea, I was thinking about how to fix this problem. I think starting with a radius of 5 miles and increasing it until users can see the chatrooms from the closest 100 people would solve all that.
- jiggy2011 12y agoYes, but you probably want some cut off. It might be better to see a shorter list of people who are reasonably close rather than 100 people who might not even be in the same country.
- wellboy 12y agoHmm, I see your point, but isn't it better to have content on the app with people a bit farther away instead of "no content of people close-by."
- jiggy2011 12y agoIt depends really on what the purpose of your app is. I would normalise your data somehow against a population map, so distance in sparsely populated areas is weighted differently to dense urban areas.
- rakoo 12y agoThat would actually be interesting to learn about people who have a much more different lifestyle than people in your direct area !
