rmbr opens beta

Friday, February 8th, 2008

Friends: after many months of waiting (it’s only been 4, but it feels like *forever*) rmbr is finally available for open registration.

You can avail yourselves of the site’s features to share and play with your photos in exciting new ways. We’ve also recently launched our newest game - PhotoPsychic.  We hope you’ll enjoy playing it with your friends.

Drop us a line if you have any questions, ideas or comments!

Grabbing A Friend - it’s not what you think

Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

We put out a new release on Friday with some cool new stuff!

rmbr now has a new feature that you’ve been clamoring for: GRAB. It lets you add a friend to a given conversation (or to your network) with a single click, directly from a photo. You simply click on “Grab Someone”, enter their email address or name, and they’ll receive a notification that they’ve gotta see the pic and discussion in progress.

And, as an FYI, we’ve got some exciting new “writers” at rmbr. A couple of photo columnists have started gossiping and curating funny photo collections right on rmbr. You probably received a friend invite or two from Gossip Whore or LOL About. Give ‘em a shot - you might enjoy what they have to say! :)

A New Release and Emails-a-Plenty

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

With great excitement (a few extraneous emails - sorry!) and a lot of sweat on the part of our team, we’re super excited to announce the latest release of rmbr. It goes a long way toward reinforcing our vision that photos are a catalyst for memories, and that you can engage in a deep and meaningful (if generally amusing) interaction with your friends around them.

To that end, here’s what we’ve added and improved:

  • The Mix now works to automatically find all of your friends’ best memories
  • How you discover and add new friends
  • View all the most recent updates with our quick view
  • The speed of the site is vastly improved
  • We’ve given you some invitations if you’re already a user

And we’ll be adding even more great stuff before the end of the year, so stay tuned. Come and play!
