One of best things about having a smartphone is the camera. I take pictures all the time. Sometimes I post them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. Other times, I use them for DigiDame or send them via email to pals. A good portion of my photos go nowhere.

I get very upset when I go through my camera roll and see fantastic photos that I never shared with others. There are moments of my life that I know others could relate to and would make for interesting conversations.

That is why I am particularly interested in a new app called Memoir. The tech site Mashable says:

“Memoir syncs and stores photos from your phone and computer in the cloud, organizes them by date and then pulls in data from social networks like Facebook, Instagram and Foursquare to provide more social context. The app uses the time stamp and geolocation data to determine if a Foursquare check-in should be grouped together with an Instagram photo or a picture from your phone’s camera roll. Likewise, it analyzes data about those you’re connected to on social networks to determine if they were part of a particular moment, even if you never tagged them, and makes it easy to search for moments you shared.”

Basically, the brain of this app is collecting all related photos and storing them in one place. It’s done by time stamp and geo-location data. It searches years of files.

Sign up for Memoir. It is being rolled out slowly on iPhone only.
