Train of Knowledge Factory
A collective platform of knowledge exchange for travelers
Wouldn't it be great to actually do something with the time you spend sitting on a train? Something better than just reading the on-board magazine; something nicer than just doing some work you`ve dreaded to do for weeks. Why not share your knowledge and experiences with your friends and the worldwide community of travelers? Why not try to get in touch with people you would never meet in your normal life back home? The Train of Knowledge App helps you and others to do just that as it creates a network for train passengers with matching interests to meet and share knowledge during their journey.
The application is a Social Network for train passengers allowing people to get in touch with other people traveling on the same train. Users can register their profession or specify various fields of interest and search for interesting people to share the journey with. The integrated chat function enables the user to get into first contact. They can suggest what they would like to talk about and let others know what`s on their mind. And if you get along, to meet on the train is only ever a few steps away …
Imagine the possibilities the Train of Knowledge Application implies: The times of sitting alone and bored on a train would be over! If you share a 5-hour journey on a packed train, chances are you are sitting just a few seats away from one of the most interesting chats of your life. The Train of Knowledge App helps you to make the first step. And there is no limit to what you can do with the app.
The Train of Knowledge Application brings together people from all walks of life, no matter what age, colour or other background. Everyone is welcome to jump on the train!
To realize this project, I am looking for technical experts ready to help me to solve my technical and business needs. Before the Train of Knowledge App will be financed by Crowd funding, I need technical support to develop a first prototype.
