Showcasing in TechCrunch Start-Up Alley, PigeonMe Announces official U.S. Launch of iPhone Application

 

OKLAHOMA CITY, Sept. 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — PigeonMe, a free iPhone application developed by Sticky Projects LLC to connect people to places through open mapping technology, today announced plans to debut it’s modern meet-up solution at TechCrunch Disrupt 2011, the second annual conference in San Francisco attracting thousands of leading technology innovators and investors and over 150 new startup companies.

Presenting at TechCrunch’s Start-Up Alley on Tuesday, September 13, 2011 from 7:30 AM to 7:30 PM in the San Francisco Design Center Concourse, innovators of PigeonMe will reveal the application’s official national launch by premiering PigeonMe’s creative solution and discussing the app’s place in the social location application space.

The PigeonMe app puts a 21st century technological spin on the idea of homing pigeons. Through its social pathfinding functionality, the app works by sending electronic ‘pigeons’ notifying user’s friends, family or associates when and where to meet for social or business activities. PigeonMe bypasses phone tag and standard messaging when arranging meetings by seamlessly incorporating the GPS ability of the iPhone, allowing those who receive ‘pigeons’ to see where the user is and how to get to a specific location.

"PigeonMe was released on a local basis just a few weeks ago and already it has had an excellent early adoption rate," said Roy Georgia, Co-founder of Sticky Projects LLC the creator of PigeonMe. "We’re now ready to tell the nation about PigeonMe and what better place to start spreading the word of our bird than at TechCrunch Disrupt."

PigeonMe is currently available as a free app in the iPhone App Store: The Android version of the application is currently in development.
