What is snip clipping? filed under: the philosophy of collecting — Martin @ 8:20 pm

When interviewing social network users we discovered a phenomena: people collect snips of their favourite movies and clip them into their profile pages. We called this phenomena “snip clipping” and thus designate our Facebook app SnipClip. Snip clipping is all about collecting: bringing together what you like and showing the world that you like it. It’s not only about possessing things, but also about sharing common interests and exchanging things as a form of communication. In fact, snip clipping is above all a social activity and social networks like Facebook are the ideal environment for such activities.

Our app is not yet finished, but we are working hard on it. Thus, any feedback is highly welcome! At the left side you see our new logo. If you like or dislike it, drop us a message! We choose a squirrel as our logo, because squirrels are the embodiment of collecting. And here is a screenshot of our application:

If you like to take a preview on our application, leave us a comment. We’ll contact you!

Until then, have a good time!
