I agree to an extent, its not the idea of capturing a location as so much a collective at a specific moment in time. Example: Yelp/Gowalla collect pictures of food and venues and really it doesn't matter so much when they were taken. Color is cashing in on capturing moments in time that are relevant to a group of related or unrelated people, but the real question is how often is this relevant and even for times that are relevant, as a fleeting moment, will 90% of the pictures provided even matter to a user. I can tell you honestly I get bored after looking at the first few pictures of random people I care nothing about.
- arepb 15y agoThe time axis on this is the most interesting part, but as you point out the reality is for most things people don't care. On the other hand, I can't wait until Google releases their timeline-based photos on top of Google streetview. It will be a browsable history of earth, geolocated.
