After reading on TechCrunch about the new mobile app Color, I had to give it a try. What does Color do? It let’s you take social photos and see photos being taken around you. it has the same strange excessively public quality that Twitter has. Is it easy to use? Yes. I signed in and had taken my first picture in under a minute. There isn’t a lot of functionality right now, but I appreciate the simplicity of design. It has a certain elegance to it…
Will I use this much? Maybe. It will be fun at things like conferences, meetings and events. Places where you see a lot of people you might kind of know. Is it the next FaceBook? No. I’d rather look at any of the 62 Billion photos on FaceBook, then at the shaky photo from an event. However, I think the younger bar going crowd will really enjoy Color, the application lends itself to the young and uncommitted. Should you check it out? Yeah, photos are fun. Will FaceBook be doing this? Yeah…they kind of already are doing this with Checking In and Who is Here Now. Still this is a simple application without the baggage of FaceBook. Did I mention it is free?
