I'm saying I think Apple will build Bump into the phone. Then it's game over for all of this.

I'm saying I think Apple will build Bump into the phone. Then it's game over for all of this.
- blaurenceclark 12y agoWhat about Android users?
- rogerdickey 12y agoGuess we need an open protocol! OP should build that
- blaurenceclark 12y agohaha, the problem then is still you both have to have Bump, that is a huge friction in and of itself unless Apple and Google and Microsoft banded together to make one universal connection method. As far as I've been able to find the only two mediums that match that friction are an email or a phone number. (And we're looking at adding text message support instead of just email)
- jaredsohn 12y agoAs I mentioned in another post, Bump had a web app. A third medium is that most people have the ability to access a website. I built http://near.im/ http://near.im/ (sorry for the ugly frontend) with this in mind. An advantage here is you don't have to communicate to another person your name or e-mail address (which can be hard for some people), just describe a short domain name.
