About Us

Fugaboo is the fun, new way to meet cool people, get great stuff, and find out what’s happening in your neighborhood. Be it your dorm, your apartment building, your block, or your whole ‘hood, Fugaboo makes it super-easy to connect and communicate with people who live nearby.

Want to find someone to exercise with? Need to borrow a ladder?
Looking for a lost pet? Got an update about a local issue? Just pop over to Fugaboo, create a “flyer” and, in seconds, your message will be out!

You can post flyers to your ‘hood, to your favorite coffee shop or café, to the library or dog park…just about anywhere. With Fugaboo it’s easy to be in touch with all the spots you like to go and the people there you want to know.

Fugaboo is great for buying and selling things, keeping up with nearby places you care about, and coordinating all kinds of activities, but you can definitely take it a step further. With advanced social features like The Super Grouper and Amigo Magic! you can also use Fugaboo to make new friends.

The Super Grouper helps you search for, form, and join groups within your ‘hood. Moms, musicians, entrepreneurs, writers, gardeners…basically, anyone can put together a special little area for others who have similar needs, issues, or desire for interaction around a particular topic.

Amigo Magic! is a really fun people-matching algorithm to help you find individuals in your neighborhood with similar interests, hobbies, favorite places, etc. Use it to meet cool people, go on dates, build new social connections, whatever!

Think of all the time, money, gas, and other stuff you could save by sharing resources and doing things closer to home. Now, combine that with the opportunity for an awesome new social circle right where you live. It’s not hard to see how Fugaboo might just transform your neighborhood life into something completely amazing.

It’s good in the hood!
