    I hadn't heard of it, is it another photo sharing platform?

    I googled it and the first few results were about what problems they've been having - a victim of their own success? Bit of info here: http://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-43208162

    Pretty much.

    Apparently you connect with people based on music, films, books and photos shared.

    No advertising or data mining or anything.

    So it seems from some of the tweets referenced in that BBC story. I might give it a while, let some others be the guinea pigs :D

    Eh, the first million users get a free account for life, after that it'll be a paid subscriprion service (hence no advertising or data mining). So I signed up for that, if it goes somewhere happy days, if not no worries.

    I like the design of it, but it's a bit flaky at times.
