Thumbnail Sharing Apps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Newly Released Tiiny App From Kevin Rose Lets You Send Small Images

— September 15, 2014 — Tech
The new mobile application from Kevin Rose allows you to send tiny pictures that will disappear after 24 hours. Not dissimilar from Snapchat, the aptly named Tiiny app is the first from Rose's newest company North. The entrepreneur began the mobile development firm after leaving Google Ventures and founding Digg, Milk and Revision3.

Kevin Rose's Tiiny lets users share thumbnail sized photos and GIFs to a grid on their friends' smartphones that will go away after 24 hours. Replacing the full-sized image scroll, Tiiny gives you a real-time glance of what your network is up to. The iOS app shows a three by four table with moving images that TechCrunch describes as "vibrant and alive" and potentially more addictive than Instagram or Vine.
Trend Themes
1. Disappearing Images - The trend of apps that allow users to send small images that disappear after a set period of time presents opportunities for innovative platforms and features that enhance visual communication.
2. Real-time Networking - The trend of apps like Tiiny that provide a real-time glimpse of what your network is up to creates opportunities for disruptive innovations in social networking and group communication.
3. Miniature Content Creation - The trend of sharing thumbnail-sized photos and GIFs on apps like Tiiny opens up opportunities for creative content creation that emphasizes brevity and simplicity.
Industry Implications
1. Mobile App Development - The mobile app development industry has an opportunity to create new apps or enhance existing ones by integrating disappearing image features similar to Tiiny.
2. Social Networking - The social networking industry can take advantage of the real-time networking trend by developing innovative platforms that provide instant updates and a more dynamic user experience.
3. Visual Communication Tools - The visual communication tools industry has an opportunity to create new platforms and features that enable users to easily share miniature content and enhance their visual messaging.
