About lifeblob
Lifeblob is a social service that helps you connect with your friends through photos and videos. The core concept behind lifeblob is that every event that happens in the life of a person relates him/her with other people, places and often specific interests. These relations have a tendency of connecting like-minded individuals together and are also a very interesting means of navigating from one event to another. This journey through relations is what Lifeblob is all about.
Imagine adding a photo of your college reunion and instantly discovering other photos of your college friends. Or imagine adding photos of your picnic at a hill top and discovering photos of other people who have been there before. Or imagine posting a photo of your recent cycling trip and getting connected with other cycling enthusiasts. The possibilities are endless – with each photo you add, you have an opportunity to discover photos that you would never see otherwise, meet people you would never meet otherwise, become a part of a community that you would never find otherwise.
In addition to discovering photos connected to you through people, places and interests, lifeblob also understands the time context around a photo to connect photos across time and builds a timescape for you. As an example, if you add a photo of Mahatma Gandhi, lifeblob intelligently detects that the relevance of Mahatma Gandhi is towards the early 1900s and lets you explore more photos around that era. This provides a very powerful way to skip across time and discover content that is connected with the photo that you just added.
All this, with a neat timeline visualization that turns your photos into a movie-reel like visualization, make Lifeblob a very compelling experience.
