Exploring your city is a great way to make friends, discover new places, find new interests, and invent yourself. Tagzz is an Android app where everyone collectively defines the places they visit and the places in turn define them. Tagzz allows you to discover yourself by discovering places. You tag a spot, create some buzz for it and, if everyone agrees the spot is 'fun' this bolsters your 'fun' quotient. If everyone agrees the spot is 'geeky' it pushes up your ‘geeky’ score. Thus emerges your personal tag cloud. Follow tags to chance upon new places. Find people with similar 'tag clouds' as your own and experience new places together. Create buzz for your favorite spots and track other buzz to find who has the #bestchocolatecake in town!
