Jambo

The Jambo system starts on this website, moves onto your WiFi-enabled device and culminates when you can put your technology away and interact directly with someone near you who shares one of your professional or personal interests. It took years to build but only minutes to download and begin using.

Four simple steps: 1. Produce a bio about yourself and what you are searching for. 2. Download Jambo application. 3. Discover when the people you want to meet are nearby you. 4. Meet face to face.

To start using Jambo, you need an invitation to register for the beta program. This may come from a representative from an organization you're a member of that is participating, or from a friend who invites you. Follow the web link in the invitation to go to the registration page.

Enter your first and last name and choose a username. Create a password, and enter your email address. Then click OK. The web server will then send a confirmation message to your email account. If you use a spam filter for your email, make sure that email from "[email protected]" will not be deleted by your filter. You can edit your email address and resend the confirmation code if needed. When you receive the email, follow the confirmation link. This will confirm your email address and activate your account.

Once you are registered, click the "My Jambo" link on the navigation bar to log in and access the web features documented below.

Note: the Jambo web site uses Javascript in a few areas, such the "Popular Choices" hints that are available on some group profiles. These features won't work if you have disabled Javascript in your web browser preferences, but none of the basic features on the site rely on Javascript.
