Digital Graffiti as a Social Media/Social Expression Tool
Last night’s first-ever Washington Mobile Monday covered the concept of digital graffiti, which consists basically of public screens that display the content of text messages sent to a particular shortcode or phone number. We played around with an example last night and it was a ton of fun — imagine blog-style collective conversation, but projected on a wall in front of us.
Stephen Randall, CEO of LocaModa, which developed the Wiffiti digital graffiti tool we were using, talked about rolling the technology out in coffeeshops and bars, possibly linked to social networking applications (hmmmmm, let’s find the profile of the person who just wrote that I was hot!) as well as on huge screens in public places (imagine a massive public conversation board in Times Square, also connected to the web and hence readable from anywhere in the world).
