SmallTalk Topic app for iPhone and iPad

Small talk is defined as a light conversation about common, everyday things.
Depending on the social occasion, the conversation may vary from asking how a person is doing to talking about the weather.

This seems like a simple activity and most people do this every day.
But not everyone is as skillful at it as the other.

Some may find this hard, the concept of having a polite conversation about unimportant things.

What do you talk about when you dont know each other?

What if you say something wrong and offend the other person.

You only have one chance for a first impression.

How do you deal with awkward silences?

I think most of us will have experienced this a couple of times in their lifetime, at least I do.
At those times I really wished that I could read minds and know what to say to avoid certain awkward moments.

Unfortunately thats not really possible. But... what if?
What if there is something close to it. Something that will help you, in a big way, by giving you options.



Thats the main function of this application: to provide you with topics to talk about. Its as simple as that.

So where to begin?
First you have to enter a couple of topics that you find interesting or have strong feelings for.

These topics will be combined into a special list, an identifier for your preferences.
The list itself is used to provide various functions inside this application.

For example you can get a notification, when another user who shares similar interest is nearby.
Or you can browse through all the active users around you and discover the topics of interest that you have in common.

Another example is that the list will be used to determine the most popular topics across all users. This way you can always find a save topic to start a conversation.
The popular topics are further ordered into active topics around you, new trending topics and all time popular topics.

And beside this, there are even more options and functions to discover.

So what are you waiting for?
Try it out and before you know it, youll be talking to everyone.
