This is a classical example of a typical startup - simple and obvious idea - instant photos, instead of texting. But I think this will not last long.
For example, an easy, deep integrated tool for upload photos right from mobile phones (they have a 3-5 megapixel cams nowadays) seems like next step in that direction, and Nokia's Ovi might gain the ground very fast.
Anyway, they probably should think about mobile apps to evolve.

- zaidf 17y agoSimply adding a feature is very different from the feature taking off and allowing for a community to form. The latter is not as guaranteed--no matter how big you are. Biggest example is classifieds. People thought facebook could take on Craigslist overnight. Didn't happen. Facebook Classifieds for the most part failed.
- axod 17y agoI think that's for different reasons though. Facebook is about communication with friends, and allowing for quick and easy photo blogging fits well with that. Personally, I don't want to look at classifieds on facebook, because it's not really a 'community' type of thing to do.
