How does it it works? * Choose Your Mood - Something active, something chill, perhaps some food – or surprise me! *Weave Your Experience - Yarn instantly searches for other travelers looking for a similar experience. *Get Connected - Your results include a group of travelers along with a location and suggested meeting time. Don’t like the result – shake the phone and try again! *Experience It - Chat with your fellow travelers and head out for some fun! When you’re done rate the experience to help us improve and start again for a new adventure.

Really love the UX! Simple, beautiful and intuitive. I’m testing this in San Francisco right now, how are you scraping and categorizing the activities? Google/yelp? Somethings suggested like CrossFit seem like odd fits.
