At a company of 10,000, it's important to know the 100 people you'll be working closest to. I built a "memory" game as a webapp which matched the faces of 4 people on your team to a single name and a list of self-assigned skills. You click on a photo to match a name to a face, and once you guess right a new set loads. You can randomly click through your whole team and learn a lot about them in just 15 minutes or so.
The whole thing was built with read-only SQL scripts, Flask, and some JQuery.
I agree, I think thats a great idea. I would like to put it on at my place. Mostly for me, as I can never remember people and its not that big of a company but there are so many people I do not know.

This sounds very interesting and useful. I was thinking about making something similar but with my personal contacts & people I meet socially.
Is your code opensource or only for internal use?

Nice. I've done a similar thing using spaced repetition software like Anki to practice everyone's name right after I join a company.
