I Really Wanted to Hate 'Color' But Here's a Use Case...

Another obvious use case is at a party/a night at the club. I'd love to take a few pics and go home and see every picture taken there at the time. Since people generally have the decency to not put party-pictures on facebook anymore, it'd be great to see them somewhere without having to tag your shenaningans for the whole world to see.

Hi Cody!

Color is the foursquare of photo apps. Which is to say: novel, silly, and, ultimately rather useless.

For group photo sharing, which I think is an awesome idea, there's an app/site in private beta called Chute (getchute.com) which does the same thing with less emphasis on users nearby.

Why would you want to hate something you've never used just because they raised a huge volume of money?

Ignoring the fact that they just might be on to something huge (don't trust me, ask sequoia), a valuation like this could raise the valuations for other start-ups.

Imagine its use on a Saturday night when you're debating whether to go to the bar next door. An image speaks a thousand words. A series of related images tells an entire story.

Color really needs a desktop/webapp companion app which I can watch the pic-stream from my contacts of interest / places of interest / subject matter of interest...

I just installed it on my iPhone, but I have the 3G and it is super slow (all items are slow on this phone) -- Ill install it on my My Touch later - but as I set at my desk I would prefer a tab in my browser to view the photos as opposed to just my phone.

The conversation that is on this article - did that occur in the Color app?
