Cognited: Virb a social network without the clutter

  • Brad · 8 months ago
    I appreciate the shout out, Warren. We are excited to continually grow and build upon the new Virb platform. Content IS king, yes, and our goal is to see Virb be to the internet what HBO is to cable.
  • wcolbert · 8 months ago
    Great. I suppose you mean that HBO delivers premium content in contrast to the more generic/lower quality content. Interesting analogy. I assume then your audience will be far more niche based than more general sites like Facebook/MySpace. Hopefully that will lead to more targeted ads and higher CPMs.

    As a side note, what platform/framework are you guys built on? Or is it 100% custom?
  • Brad · 8 months ago
    Yessir, that is exactly what was meant by the HBO/cable analogy. Because of that vision, we will always be a little more niche than a FB or MSP; though not to the point of elitism. We believe that every single human being creates something that will interest someone. Good content is born every day. Good content never gets old. Its destiny is to be on Virb.

    I'm excited for the new Explore we will be rolling out with our 2.1 update in May; making it even more fun to find things that interest you: http://bit.ly/mh6rm

    Regarding the platform, it is a 100% custom, scalable, in-house, magical framework. Thanks for asking.

    many social media sites no a days are offering new features, for the competition among social media sites is really hard to break, each of them are trying to be above the others

    Despite the wonderful UI, content is king, and on Social Networks the content that keeps users coming back is more users. Maybe Virb’s goal is really to be a place for really creative people to well, be creative.

    I spend so much time searching for the things I want, it’s nice to just browse through images, videos, and quotes from interesting people that I don’t know. It’s like channel surfing on TV, but better. There are definitely some talented artists and photographers on Virb.

    Thanks and Regards
  • Oyelaja Adebambo · 3 months ago
    Yeah and that has motivated the creation of a site like waaazap. We believe sharing should not be limited to friends alone but having a few friends around is not also a bad idea. Check it out at http://www.waaazap.com And hey virb is amazing

    It’s purpose isn’t to keep in touch with friends. Instead Virb lets you explore photos, text, quotes, bookmarks, videos, and more. One of my favorite features on Virb is the explore button.

    Maybe Virb’s goal is really to be a place for really creative people to… well, be creative. I’ve got no problem with that, since I’m a big fan of concrete mission statements or mantras. I think it tends to lead to products that answer a need and successfully monetize.

    The beauty of the internet is everyone gets a voice. The downfall of the internet is everyone gets a voice. It makes it extremely hard for PMs to sift through the mess(as evident from the comments on MG’s TechCrunch post) and understand what is noise and what is actionable feedback that should be addressed. OK, that is now out of the way and I can get back to the task at hand, Virb.

    Well very nice posts.It really isn’t fair to compare it to Facebook, since it’s purpose isn’t to keep in touch with friends. Instead Virb lets you explore photos, text, quotes, bookmarks, videos, and more.
