Curious to hear what people think: [app] https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ourglass-12-best-friends/id1020881577?mt=8 & [web] http://app.ourglass.co
The app lets people share their daily lives’ events with loved ones in private network.
It avoids the anxieties of trying to accumulate more friends, followers, and likes. This is just for your inner circle; there’s no like-counter, no pressure to get more followers. Subsequently people can feel comfortable frequently and authentically sharing their daily lives - not just the spectacular highlight once a month that thousands of 'friends' can see.
This is not meant to discredit other social networks - they are great for discovering all kinds of stuff on a global level. The thing is just that, when you open instagram, twitter, or Facebook, you get no real updates from the people you really care about.
