Slingshot - Facebook's new photo and video app (leaked)

Link not loading on mobile?

There have been rumors about Slingshot for the past few weeks, referencing similarities to one of my favorite new apps, Taptalk (cc @ogtfaber @abramdawson). Looking forward to trying this out.

@scotthurff their domain isn't resolving yet: http://sling.me/ I think @daveambrose may have jumped the gun :)

Talk about breaking news ;) @rrhoover I love this town.

@scotthurff I <3 you guys

Based on the description in this TC piece (http://techcrunch.com/2014/06/09...), it reminds me more of Povio than of Snapchat, from a UX perspective.

It's interesting they're doing this after shutting down Poke (which is a very similar concept and relatively similar implementation) just three months ago. I wonder what they felt went wrong with Poke, and what they got right with Slingshot.

It's also only available in select markets - not the US, though, for now

@gkoberger Gotta fail to succeed -- I like the tenacity.

US App Store only (or at least not the Dutch one), hate that sh*t
