Media and Chat

• Media apps are either individualistic or exhibitionistic

• Chat apps are transactional, one topic at a time

• Media apps help capture and preserve experiences, yet the

big picture is composed of multiple perspectives

All slides confidential

Context and Intimacy

• Real-world social groups have a unique context

• Flattening these groups into one forgoes intimacy

• Social networks organize around individuals rather than

experiences

• Natural to organize media around experience (when,

where, and whom you were with).

Best of both worlds

• Share media with the relevant social groups

• Shared media becomes a part of your media library

• Browse your media library by context
