Every day we use social-networking tools to interact with people hundreds or even thousands of miles away from us, and yet we rarely get to know our professional neighbors in the office down the hall, on another floor, or in nearby buildings. New York communications design firm Supermetric has created a solution for combining the former with the latter. Stackd is a free-to-use site designed to help people in office buildings get in touch-"for business or beers," as its website says. Once a building signs up, all tenants who want to can provide basic descriptive and contact information as well as Twitter-or Facebook-like status updates. But the website's structure is deliberately limited: It's designed to encourage face-to-face interaction.
