What CEO Dan Sines has called the Pandora Internet radio for experiences, Woofound is an online and iPhone application that presents users with slides of things to do in their respective cities, which they then tag as “Me” or “Not Me.” Based on these informal, visual surveys, Woofound then presents users options for activities they’re most likely interested in.
According to the Sun, Woofound “is also working on a career application with the University of Maryland Baltimore County and Towson University, which will help match students with possible careers that fit their personalities.
