Path

Over 7 months ago, I downloaded an iPhone app called Path. At the time, it was just "alright". It was a way to share some photos or photos of an event with a close friend or a family member. I wasn't sure if I would ever have a chance to use it. I didn't see much more to it than that at the time.

About a week ago, I got an "alert" message on my phone. My friend Jacob Slaton downloaded the app and added me to his Path. I hadn't checked the ap in a while, despite leaving it on my phone and downloading the updates, so I decided to check it out again.

WOW! What a difference. Path 2.0 is light years ahead of Path and any other social network I have ever used! The idea is to share your "Path" (your life) with your closest friends and family all from your mobile device (iphone or android). You can also use it like a "third party application" and update your facebook, twitter, tumblr, or foursquare status from the app. Below is a promotional video.

You can share photos, videos, check in at a location, tag your friends, note what music you are listening to, or just post a thought to share with your close friends and family. The interface is amazing & very easy to use. It is so smooth too. So far, I have no privacy concerns as no one can see anything until you approve them.

My family is currently using "Group Me" to share text, photos, and videos with each other. It works most of the time, but the quailty of video isn't as good after it goes through compression over the cellular networks. However, Path is the prefect tool to take the next step. I will only be adding CLOSE friends and Family to this "network" in an effort to share MORE of my life with those I love.

Here is a video that talks about all of the features of Path 2.0. 

Visit www.path.com to download the app to your phone (iphone/android) and find out more information.

Enjoy sharing your Path!

I've been hearing a lot about this app from my friends. I guess I'll have to go try it out... Yet another social account to keep updated. :)
