Google's New Photo-Sharing iPhone App

You finally put all your photos on that promotional flash drive.  Now what?  Google's got you covered.  Yesterday, the Internet and computer software giant introduced a new iPhone application that allows users to share photos publicly, reports Mashable

The iPhone app, Photovine, is "centered on community storytelling through mobile photos," and encourages users to "plant a photo" and "watch it grow," according to Mashable.  It's important to note that Photovine will be different from other photo-sharing apps, such as Instagram, because users are encouraged to engage and share with others. 

Another way Photovine is distinct from other photo-sharing apps is that the vines -- or photo threads -- have themes.  For example, if a user creates a theme called "Back to School," you can expect to see photo uploads from all over the world of students showing off their new custom backpacks and other back to school promo products.

I look forward to playing around with Google's new iPhone app!  Maybe I'll even start a promotional products thread.

That's really cool. There's another app called "Color" that shows you your friends' photos that they post plus photos of strangers around you in the same area for a different perspective on the same location.
