Friends and peers can score you with DescribeMe

Human beings are naturally curious about what others think of them. Wouldn't you like to know what your friends say about you to their friends, or the opinions of others who share your interests and skills?

DescribeMe is a mobile app that allows users to anonymously rate one another on hundreds of qualities, from creativity to leadership to dancing skills.

Here's how it works: After you create a profile on the DescribeMe platform, you invite other users who are familiar with your lifestyle, personality and work to describe you using a 1 to 10 rating scale for each characteristic.

"DescribeMe allows users to call on their peers to acknowledge and reinforce their strengths as well as point out areas where they might need improvement, so they can change," said Saul Jaramillo, founder of DescribeMe.

DescribeMe's free app is available in English and Spanish in the Apple App Store, Google Play and Blackberry World. Check out the DescribeMe website to see a cool map of the app's global users and follow DescribeMe on Twitter.
