Rich May Client LifeSnapz, Inc. Launches New Website to Share and Explore Life Events
Rich May client LifeSnapz, Inc. has launched LifeSnapz (www.lifesnapz.com),
a website that allows people to easily capture memorable life events
and share them with trusted groups. LifeSnapz enables users to preserve
the details of important events using photos, videos and text and share
these details effortlessly in a private and secure manner. The site
also helps users organize and explore events through timelines, maps,
tags and lists. LifeSnapz can be used by many types of groups, such as:
- Extended Families – to stay up-to-date with each other about holidays, vacations and birthdays,
- Music or sports fans – to create a shared recollection of bands and concerts, or teams and games,
- Alumni groups – to preserve past events, keep up to date on each other’s lives and organize reunions,
- Schools – to share class events among parents, teachers and students during the school year,
- Youth
sports teams – to chronicle and share the excitement from games
throughout a season with the players and their families, and
- Community organizations – to track important happenings in a neighborhood or local area and keep residents informed.
LifeSnapz is built on a proprietary event-based platform that allows
users to slice time and space. Dynamically generated timelines and maps
provide users with unique ways to search across different events and
groups. Users can also connect search results based on shared
attributes, such as who was in attendance at certain events and when
and where these events occurred.
“People have a fundamental desire to preserve, relive, share and pass
along memories, whether they are from parties, vacations, weddings,
birthdays, school events, concerts, holidays, sporting events or a
child’s first steps,” said Brian Hand, LifeSnapz’s CEO and co-founder.
“The problem has been that capturing and sharing the specifics of these
events can be difficult, the details of what happened are often
incomplete and searching across events is nearly impossible. LifeSnapz
helps people overcome these hurdles and enables memories to be vividly
recalled and relived.”
About LifeSnapz, Inc.
LifeSnapz, Inc. was founded in January 2007 to help people share and
explore memorable life events using the web. Based in Chicago, the
company is funded by Apex Venture Partners and Trident Capital.
