This is a fun interview with EyeEm’s CEO. Definitely check out EyeEm if you want an Instagram alternative (or just want to experiment with other options for mobile photo filters/sharing).

EyeEm update adds new filters and frames
Some details from the EyeEm blog:
- “14 new and reworked filters meet 12 custom frames and make taking photos together a completely new experience.”
- “Each filter can be combined with every frame, resulting in sheerly endless creative possibilities.”
- “One of the coolest features in this update is the swipe option to switch between filters and frames. No need to tap endlessly on the bottom of your screen to get the right look: just swipe horizontally to choose your filter and vertically to choose your frame.”
Happening on Wednesday, March 7. Should be fun.
This sounds like fun. It’s scheduled for Tuesday, February 21, and they’ll be talking about photo filters.
Interesting take on this new app:
The real difference with EyeEm — and the place where it might have a slim chance of breaking out — is in sharing and seeing other people’s photos. This is done through what the company calls “vibes”: essentially an automated system that categorizes photographs by subject and location, allowing you to tap into the stream of photos from other people. “We believe hashtags are pointless,” says [founder Florian] Meissner. “No one should need to bother with them. We know who you are, where you are, when you’re taking the photograph. So we’ve developed an algorithm that gives you as accurate suggestions as possible.”
