Ruggles

Ruggles is for Northeastern students who want to find people they actually have something in common with.

Most people you'd get on with are already on campus. You just never cross paths with them. Ruggles lets you look for them directly.

HOW IT WORKS

You add tags to your profile. Where you're from, down to your city and high school. Your major, your courses, your dorm, the clubs you're in and where you did co-op. The sports you play and the teams you follow. The films, shows, games, books and artists you're into.

Then you search more than one tag at once. Barcelona and Soccer. Lagos and Computer Science. Interstellar and Mr Robot. You see everyone on campus who has all of them, and what else you have in common.

Your top matches are the people who share your rarest tags. Two people who both picked the same high school have more to talk about than two people who both like music, so that's who comes first.

GROUPS

If a few of you share something specific, you can make a group around it and invite the people who have those tags. Once three people are in, the group opens. You can chat, suggest a time and place to meet, and see who's coming. Saying you can't make it is one tap, and nobody sees who said no.

FEED AND ASKS

The feed is posts from students, newest first. Nothing is ranked or pushed at you.

Asks are for small things you need help with right now. A spotter at the gym, someone to sit with at the library, someone to walk into a club meeting with. They disappear after a couple of hours.
