An app to get you off your phone and connecting with your neighbors in real life ! Remember the time when we talked to our neighbors in person, kids organically met in an open area near their homes and played till it was time for dinner? When knocking on a neighbor's door was not only acceptable but welcome. This is our attempt to get some of that back while accepting this era.
