Refresh Provides Creepy Dossiers on People to Avoid Awkward Small Talk

Via Lifehacker:

Refresh is an iOS app that's currently in private beta, though you can get access by signing in with your LinkedIn account credentials. The premise is simple: connect your social accounts and Refresh will create a dossier of things you should chit chat about. Like how I should mention to Whitson that I saw his post about playing way too many video games lately two and a half weeks ago (actual suggestion). If nothing else, this app highlights just how much of your personal life is readily available to third-party APIs.
