N2 - Lately, people spend a fair amount of time with Online Social Networks. Real encounters, especially with non-related people, tend to not be encouraged any more. In this scenario, we present an application involving virtual and physical elements aiming to help people start an interaction.

Using their smartphones collaboratively, people can fill out a virtual water container and, once the container is full, they can release the water from it, watering the real garden as a consequence.
