Have you heard of the latest social media site? Its called Color, it officially launched last week and is being branded as *the* new photo-based social media for mobile users.
Their announcement gave a brief description of their service:
| Every photo and video captured using Color is stored on the Web for immediate access via the application without requiring massive amounts of storage space on your phone. Capture every experience without worrying about using up memory; Color has infinite capacity. Each day is beautifully displayed as a series of thumbnail images. Scroll through days, weeks, or even months, instantly using an intuitive touch interface. Tap on any image to go back to the day when it was originally captured for full contextual information, like who was involved, who saw it, and whatever conversation it sparked. Looking back has never been so detailed, easy and fun. |
Color is a product of Sequoia Capital, which is known for helping prop up a number of big internet players in the last couple of decades, like Apple, Google, Oracle, PayPal, YouTube, LinkedIn, Cisco, NVIDIA, Yahoo, Kayak, Zappos, Electronic Arts, Atari, etc… They invested over $41 Million in Color and believe it will be the next big Facebook!
Color sounds like its made for people with short attention spans, like me! I went to the site on my PC and found only links to download the app. Wow, that’s all I can do? Its lost my attention already…..
