There is an art to conversation. An art that comes natural to some, completely baffles others and is something that most of us could get better at. The aim of the Icebreaker is to use technology as a catalyst for maintaining a casual conversation or to move the conversation past everyday pleasantries. The Icebreaker ubiquitously displays common interests shared by the people involved in a social interaction. By doing this the Icebreaker can evolve the interaction from a casual chat to an interesting and rewarding conversation.
