I use iMessage for this. It works great. It could be better. It works better than having a separate app I have to switch to. It works better than having to ask my friends to install an app that they have to switch to. Still, I love that feeling of playing with a truly novel technology for the first time with a few friends, especially when it's presented in the raw with few extraneous features. There's a feeling of excitement and exploration that seems to decay in a year's time at best.

Exactly: what he is describing is almost identical to "group MMS". The one thing he seems to have different is that he is against having words at all, but once you are taking pictures of words you really should just support it as a feature: the essential property he is against is really just that the words need to be equal to the pictures (as in, a chat where you can post either a picture or words, as opposed to a place where you post pictures and then "comment on them" using words), not below/about the pictures. If the only problem with MMS is then that it is expensive, well: iMessage solves that.
