Use it to find your friends in a crowd or send a message to the driver next to you! Some other uses: • Communicate and get noticed by your favorite on-stage performers or at your favorite sporting event. • Get with your friends and Shout It at a sports game. • Send messages across a crowded bar, club, or concert. • Use to call your friends over in a dark movie theater. • Tell the driver in front of you not to cruise in the passing lane. • Send messages to people behind you. • Use to announce to a presenter how much time is left. • Place in front of you at meetings as a name tag so no one forgets your name. • Use your device as a window sign for your business or as a banner at a trade show booth. • Limo drivers can use this instead of a piece of paper at the airport to flag their clients. • A great and flexible tool for accessibility. • Turn your device into a scorecard for judging competitions. • Can be used to communicate between sealed sound-proof rooms.
