Scenario:
Building a team for researching a good idea in science is a delicate balance: the more people to whom you tell your idea, the greater the chance of finding a few who are honestly interested, but advertise your idea too widely and you may be scooped. Even if you could trust everyone you spoke to, selling your idea means either posting a paper on the web (large audience but slow response time) or attending conferences (fast response time but small audience), both of which are painfully inefficient. QR automates the matching between all researchers and only exposes your idea to people with similar intentions.
Imagine you are attending a large conference where QR is installed: everyone inputs what they'd like to work on and watches the results screen.
Your Message:
Sample Network:
Based on the results, you can see that Pat Kremmer and Sam Kramer form a triangle of interests with you. Most other people seem to be working on their own thing.
