I have had my MingleStick for a few weeks now and this device is so so cool. I remember when I was a Consultant and always checking on a Monday morning that I had enough business cards for the coming business week. Then having to waste them when I had changed my telephone number or email address, what a hassle. I also remember trying to obtain the telephone number of the cute lady in the disco, which was impossible against all the background noise. Why was this device not around in those ‘good old days’ as it would have made my life easier and been a lot more fun.
Have you heard about the MingleStick
phenomenon?.
DESCRIPTION
The MingleStick is a single-button device with an infrared sensor on one end and a capped USB connector on the other. When two MingleStick users meet, they both point their MingleSticks at each other and click the button to create a successful connection, which is indicated by a small green light. At the end of the day, they can each plug their MingleStick device into their computer; the Mingle360 website automatically launches and they can log into their Mingle360 account to view the connections they have made that day.
OPERATION
The MingleStick device holds up to 500 ‘mingle’ meeting sets of data and when connected to your computer resets back to this 500 each time you use it. No personal information is held on the device at any time, only your Mingle360 profile ID information from the Members area (and the person you have ‘mingled’ with) is stored when you have ‘mingled’, and then this is updated on the Mingle360 website. So if you lose your MingleStick or it is stolen or damaged no personal information can be retrieved.
