Hello! My name is Jenna Harmer and an idea I have come up with is called PhotoConnect. PhotoConnect is a application that is compatible with any smart phone or mobile device. What I had envisioned for the application was this. Basically how it works is one person takes a picture of a place they are at. This could be a landmark, street sign, or anything that can register into your phone your exact location. Once you take the picture, you canxx then send it to the person you want to "connect" with. When this person receives the text message, they have the option to open the picture. By opening the picture, your phone will then register your location and be able to give you directions to get to the other person. I believe that with hard work, this idea could have a lot of potential and could really help out a lot of people. PhotoConnect can benefit and "connect" you with people everywhere!
The most beneficial source of social media to expand my idea would be Facebook. On Facebook, I would be able to make a public page advertising my application. When people like the page, the application will show up on tons of news feeds so more people will know about it. Nevertheless, this application would also be able to pin point many young users on Facebook. I know from experience, that it is such a hassle to type in a beginning and ending address on maps applications. With PhotoConnect, people won't even have to type in a beginning and ending address! Only a landmark or some type of picture is necessary. This would be less time consuming as well for people trying to get to places in a timely manner. Overall, I believe Facebook would definitely be a positive advertising tool for PhotoConnect!
Another way I could market PhotoConnect would be through Twitter! Twitter is becoming more widely known and I think with having a Twitter page I could get a lot of followers and even promote improvements of the app! People would be able to tweet at PhotoConnect even giving us feedback on how they do or do not like our product and how it could be improved. Twitter is also good for giving out short messages to people which is nice because if we have something small to say but do not feel it is necessary to put on Facebook we could just tweet about it. Both the Twitter Links and Facebook Page link would be available on each others websites.
