Wear your social network
Get Wickd is quite similar though less sexy than the flirting service Urbanseeder. Get Wickd is a tech-fashion brand that sells basic clothes with codes that can link your mobile phone to any page on the web, from a Myspace profile to a Youtube movie. This technique makes it possible to wear your virtual identity, where ever you go.
How it works:
1. You buy a piece of GetWickd clothing;
2. Download and install the special software on your mobile;
3. If you see somebody else, or somebody else sees you with a piece of barcode-clothing, you take a picture with your mobile phone;
4. You phone displays the personal page of the owner of the barcode.
In the late ’90’s, a fashionbrand called Skim.com was selling streetwear with a personal number which featured as a login code for a personal website of the owner. If you saw somebody walking around with these clothes you could write down the number and then look the owner up on his personal Skim.com page.
