So close, yet so far. Sucks.

We were indeed the first to really identify the market for mobile photo sharing.

Really, indeed. I built an iPhone photo sharing app about two years ago (It was my self-assigned "How to program in Objective C" project), and there were at least several others that came before mine.

Don't forget MMS. That came long before...

I think what he means here is, see the market opportunity and raise money against that, not just build it.

Yup, as well as Mobog, Natuba, BuzzFeed, circa 2005.

Even if that's what he meant, it's still false.

It would be great to hear a post-mortem on why the founders think they failed to get traction. I remember the Techcrunch launch post being very positive (not that these things are determining factors, but still).

I wonder if we will be hearing the same thing about Path a year from now? The two services seem very similar.
