First, while there are many nice friendly people around us we barely get a chance to talk to them and get to know them, because we’re too busy or shy to initiate a conversation, among other reasons. Second, I observed that many students eat by themselves on campus. Combining these two, I thought that a third party (the app) inviting people to eat together can tackle both these problems. The app works this way: you tell it your whereabouts, your schedule (the time you usually eat), and who like to eat with (age, gender, etc.). Then each day the app matches you with someone who meets your criteria, finds a restaurant/cafe nearby and a time convenient to your schedule, and sends you (and your match) an invitation to eat together which you can either accept or reject. I've already implemented the idea and you're welcome to join: www.friendesque.com
