SuddenSelfie

SuddenSelfie makes keeping in touch as fun and easy as bumping into a friend on the street. Here's how it works: someone shares a selfie with a group of friends or family. Everyone in the group gets a push notification and has five minutes starting then to take their selfie, and send it back to the group. Whoever gets their selfie back in the five minute window is stitched together into a "Brady Bunch" type grid.

It's like a virtual photo-booth that everyone jumps in wherever they happen to be in the middle of their day. And similar to how a photo-booth will print a photo strip, SuddenSelfie will generate a digital collage of the photos that are shared during the five-minute window.

SuddenSelfie is simple: it's all about "where are you right now?" It's not about about looking perfect or taking the time to choose a perfect filter. There actually are no filters. And you can't upload a photo from your phone -- you have to take your photo in the app in real time! This is true because we believe social media should not just being a way to show off and share the most amazing moments of your life, but instead encourage sharing all the in-between, everyday moments of your life. Maybe you're still in bed in the morning tired from a night out. Maybe you're bored at the library. Maybe you're on the bus. We believe that when you share those moments with people you care about, you are much more connected.

SuddenSelfie is not only a perfect way to keep in touch with groups of friends and family -- it also allows fans to engage with the groups of people they love. Public Groups allow followers, which means any Grid they create can be seen by anyone who follows them. Followers don't share their own selfies with these bands, casts of shows, or sports teams -- but they do get to see how those groups share genuine moments with each another. There is no better platform to see the behind-the-scenes, authentic moments from the groups you care most about.

Authenticity is the next wave of social connection. Give it a shot!
