Especially in cities, where sharing photos with the people within 100 feet of you can include anyone in your 20 story apartment building. Even if the rate of obscene photos is low, just one could ruin the user experience.
What does constitute to you as obscene and why would it ruin your user experience?
I'm interested in the exploits that may target this. First thing I would want to do is create a way to spoof my location in real-time and see what's going on in that place right then. Then I would want to send everyone in that area a picture of goatse.
Feels epic. We're here.
Related article: http://techcrunch.com/2011/03/23/color-looks-to-reinvent-soc... According to one of the comments at TC, the domain cost $350K. It's cool to see newer (and well-funded) startups going for non-"web 2.0" names, e.g. Path, and now Color.
It's a warning sign when startups have the cash to invest in a domain name before they have traction. Talk about putting the cart before the horse.

If you see some photos of amused british people in their living room representing themselves as having been taken deep in the most self-regarding of san francisco's fashionable hangouts, that was us.
I really don't understand why it needs $41M in funding. Its just another photo app...I think its more of hype than the actual useful content.

I just tried the app and definitely didn't like it, it mandatory requires you to give away your location information otherwise you cannot use the app. That's not the way to go guys :S specially with the recent discussions about internet privacy...
using the app without providing your location would make you a voyeur, which is not cool. the fact that they force you to disclose your location to use it is the first thing i've heard about this app that i like.

A domain is an asset, why would it be worth notably less after a few years if the startup were to fail?
You can't say the same for a similar amount of put into high end office furniture, for example.
We are at the precipitous. This changes everything. Feels epic. We're here.
