Web/Mobile App: TwitterSoap
TwitterSoap is a mashup of Twitter and MobyPicture.
Features:
- create a “Soap” chronicling your adventures via photo post to MobyPicture and a tweet
The Good:
TwitterSoap has the potential to allow users to create photo stories (“Soaps”) and share them via Twitter. Video capabilities are coming soon, we are told. This could be another amusing and interesting application for Twitter.
The Not-so-Good:
The idea of TwitterSoap is intriguing. At the moment, there are some obstacles standing in the way of easy execution. First, you need a MobyPicture account (an app that allows posting of photos from your mobile to various Internet sites) and you have to enable Twitter on MobyPicture. When creating a Soap/episode you need to come up with a shortcode tag and you need that tag to “launch” an episode later in TwitterSoap. It “feels” like there are 22 steps to take before things get going (although in reality there are far fewer steps required).
We like the idea, but TwitterSoap makes it difficult right now to get off the ground.
