Los Angeles Tech PR Firm PMBC Group’s client Anomo has been featured in The Daily Athenaeum, the official student newspaper at West Virginia University, as the new social discovery network that college students are turning to. The app allows users to be anonymous confirming their private information is away from public view.
The Daily Athenaeum praises Anomo for standing out among other anonymous user apps by letting users reveal their personal information on a case by case basis. Anomo is a proximity-based social media app that maintains privacy. By bringing together peers in the same area, college students can make new friends through honest conversations regarding campus life. Students can ask trusted fellow users for their opinion on a professor or a campus club without the fear of their responses being publicly posted to a wall or an online chat room.
West Virginia University students who want to create new friendships and exchange tips can form these connections through Anomo. Its Co-founder James Sun assures anonymous avatars, gender, age range and location will carry a solid foundation for starting conversations. Ice breaker games were also incorporated into the mix to facilitate friendships and create opportunities for great conversations. The icebreaker games between users ask 5 multiple choice answer questions about fun, age appropriate topics revealing compatibility and providing information for the network to find better matches for users in the future.
Group icebreakers assembling four users to play in chatrooms help build community on Anomo. James Sun recalled a moment of pride when the Anomo community reached out to a user struggling with depression and gave him support he badly needed. As an introvert himself, Sun feels the anonymity of Anomo makes users feel comfortable to be authentic.
