Zumbl

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zumbl
Type of site
Online chat, Avatars

Zumbl was an online chat service where users could converse with strangers anonymously.[1] Users could "tag" each other on the basis of their conversations, which were indicative of their personality and were reflected in their avatars. Zumbl built users' pseudo-anonymous identities and matched them with strangers who shared common interests.[2]

The service is now defunct.

Awards

[edit]

Zumbl won Samsung Innovation Awards 2012 on August 9 for the use of sentiment mining technology to find out the users' intent and depict them graphically through the users' avatars.[3]
