iCloseBy.com announces iFob, a new technology that hits the heart of what is missing in social networks. iFob brings reality back to social networking. If you have a life, and go to hotspots, then iFob will help you find real people. iFob is native software for the iPhone, iPod touch and laptops, which finds other iFob users who are physically close by. iFob doesn't use a site, and doesn't need any kind of registration or account creation. You just install iFob on your iPhone, iPod or laptop, and then as you go in and out of coffee houses or other hotspots, iFob works like a radio beacon to say, "I am here!" At the same time, your copy of iFob listens to see who is also saying, "I am here!"
