If that sounds familiar, it’s because this is the same pitch thrown by every photo-sharing app, personal social network, and Tom, Dick, and Harry in the start-up scene. Touch is counting on having an established user base that already loved Pingchat to embrace this new redesign – that looks pretty sexy, by the way – and help encourage people to have a focused, personal network with the right people. A user creates an Experience by adding photos from a camera or gallery app, then selecting which friends they want to include. Friends can add comments but there’s a special section in Experiences for that rather than a continuous stream or comments attached to a specific image.
Maybe you are hesitant about this feature fishing experience, but it may surprise us Touch and succeed where other groups have failed to share applications. Pingchat existing users can update and use the same username and password. Android 1.6 or higher is required to use the Touch.
