Rummble

Rummble’s mission is to make it as easy as possible for you to find stuff nearby you like. What should you do next?

Rummble makes it easier to share & discover places and points of interest nearby you love. Rummble is a service and platform all about the long tail of points of interest – the useful nuggets of info about the physical world we all have in our heads: e.g. the best picnic site, dog walk, kite surfing beach, vista of a city…

As users interact with the service to share & discover content, Rummble understands the context of their search including real-time data from Twitter and other sources. We have combined the technologies of local search and social discovery into one service to provide personalised recommendations.

Rummble is built by a small team based in London and Cambridge, England and some of the time San Francisco, USA. We are all passionate about social media and particularly location based mobile services and Web 3.0 – the semantic or “social” web.

Prior to developing Rummble, the Founder/CEO (Andrew Scott) and CTO (Clive Cox) ran Europes first location based social network: playtxt.net . Playtxt.net was a pioneering social application, too clever for its own good and much too early to market. Playtxt included location based SMS, a full web service, WAP service and latterly a demo Java J2ME application.

We are currently hiring people with a passion for mobile, social software and the next generation of location based services!
