A society in which older people have fewer offspring or have children who live far away increases the number of people living alone. Inevitably, these isolated adults gradually lose their connection with society, and their social skills worsen. FridgeNet promotes social activities for these people. By automating and encouraging the sharing of diet information, it establishes mutual support in a virtual community. Continual communication and discussion further promote physical social activities such as grocery shopping with peers.
