Glmps: A Social Photo App, With a New Dimension

May 26, 2011

glmpslogo.jpgWhen serial inventor, pro candle maker and very early YouTube star Paul “Renetto” Robinett called me on the phone six months ago and told me he and a team were creating a new video service, I was interested. When I got to see the service on Robinett’s phone in the lobby of the Driskill Hotel at SXSW, I was downright excited. This was my favorite new app that I saw in Austin. It’s not publicly available yet, but it’s finally getting close.

It’s called Glmps and it’s a social photo service – with a very important twist. It stores the five seconds before you snapped a photo in video – and saves the whole package together for context. It’s cool; it lets you see a little bit of the story behind a picture and it turns video into a fun freeze-frame experience. Check out the Glmps I made of my lunch, below.
