TalkWalk is an online application that connects people through walks. It was designed in 24 hours during the GOOD Hackathon, by Perrie Briskin, Mel Choyce, Lily Cho, Molly McLeod, Nina Pavlich, Michael Serritella, and Kanjana Yotjan.
We presented TalkWalk through the persona of Anne, a young mother who works from home and is looking to meet more of her neighbors.
