New Messenger Camera

@safaiyeh I don't think so. Millions of people open Snapchat camera to transform to a dog. Messenger need a better dog face to kill it. (Ok, just kidding, but partly true 😹)

@nrose Do any of these new features pose a risk to Pikazo?

@patrick_udeh that's a great question. These really don't do the same jobs as Pikazo at all - we let anyone change the subject of an artistic image to make it their own production-quality, print-ready artwork that they can be proud of. This lets you send a more fun picture, to get the recipient to open the app and see another ad. and the job stops there. We're definitely in a different aisle in that sense.

@nrose Great

@mannyorduna Very interesting thought on boomeranging the live video, however I see it challenging to properly implement with live video, so it would make sense. However, I believe that filters in live videos will be next move, yes. So that when you have a live video, you could change filters or apply watermarks. It could be a good advertisement revenue for those who has many followers and many watchers on their live-videos.

@illya_bakurov Probably why they shut down Prisma

@dandigangi That's why, yes. I don't like Facebook because of this. They cut all sources of competition, and they are integrating all popular features from all other platforms with the speed of light, just because they have resources, but they don't consider buying companies or technologies.

@illya_bakurov Understandable though to be honest. From a business perspective I mean. They can stretch their resources so far that the need to squash competitors versus acquire makes a lot of sense for them.

@dandigangi Absolutely agree with you! If I were them, that's how I would act. The only thing I am not happy is that those breakthroughs coming not from them. It's sad, that long way small start-ups should go through to make those features popular, disappears the first minute Facebook announces the same features.
