you guys….I have a new addiction.
If you were to ask me what my favorite social media form is, I will always say Instagram. Always.
That was until Monday. (Don’t worry Insta, I still got your back jack.)
Incase you haven’t heard, the beyond fabulous Joy Cho from OhJoy, collaborated with Josh and Naomi Davis from Love Taza and made a new app that is perfect for just about anyone.
1. Its very, very similar to instagram. You can add pictures/videos, etc. of your everyday….little peeks into your life.
You can also add ‘pips‘ from your blog feed. It’s pretty similar to how we would read in google readers, bloglovin, etc. It shows one picture, and a preview of your post, and the reader can click over and read your post, without ever having to leave the actual app.
I LOVE THAT.
Its so many things rolled into one, but I am loving that I can use it as my blog reader now. I have a lot that I love to read, but not 28 hours a day to search for them and read. This makes it insanely easy.
You can link up your rss feed and viola, you are good to go.
2. On any of your pics that you upload, it gives you the option to add ‘dots’ that hover on the image that are clickable, and take you to tang link that you want the user to go to.
Did you read that? Clickable links on the image, and again, all while staying in the app. So you can take your users to your blog or sources of items in the picture. Or we can click and purchase when we see an item directly from this app.
So unlike intsagram, you aren’t answering a thousand questions of where to find something.
3. You can set it to who you want to be your favorites, so when they post or their feed comes through, you are notified.
This is a new app, and saw in several Facebook groups that there were little issues last night, mainly with the feed.
Stick with it people, bugs will be fixed…. I have a feeling that this thing is going to be the next huge thing for bloggers, readers and any social media guru.
