I was on a flight to San Jose last night, and I noticed several people who had shirts on that suggested they had something to do with the tech world. One had a Facebook developers t-shirt on.

I was thinking that there is a certain mass anonymity in airports, yet there is this great potential as well. What are all these people doing in the airport? Do they have similar interests to you? Are they working on a new startup that you might be interested in? Do you and the person next to you collect watches?

Perhaps the Twitter and Facebook coders could come up with an Airport Similarity Locator plug in?

Many people want to be left alone when at the airport, but there are those of us who might find it at least fun to meet like-minded people like ourselves while being captive in the airport.
