Instagram worth 1 billion, how about the value of Path?

[jamesblare220]

Instagram acquired by Facebook, it also show its real value to the the world: 1 billion. As a prestigious and peculiar picture share community, Instagram really worth it with a huge user group.

And Path, another star rising almost in the same period, how about it now?

In October 2010, Instagram officially issued, in just two months, the number of users reached 1 million. In November, Path marked out quietly. The same picture share software, compared with Instagram, Path is more humble at first, it does not support filter, good friends for only 50, emphasis a more private social intercourse, but not find the beauty of the world or share user as own duty. Because the early development of Path was slow, once thought to be a flash in the pan in silicon valley, but thanks to the launch of Path 2.0, the number of users have significant growth.

See from on macroscopic perspective, now Path 2.0 more like an enhanced version of Instagram: the user can not only share photos, or add pictures with filter. They also share location, and with who together, words wants to say, songs listening to, even his own sleep and up in morning. In short, Instagram share the world in your eyes, and Path is more to record your course, just as its name suggests. But they still have a significantly different: in Path there not exit a Instagram photo wall a public area that allows you to find good friends. Your friend can only be found from your social network, address book exitsing social relations list, to ensure that the "private".

Path also has a unique style in the design of main window and interactive, afte rthe add new content button is pressed, when each child button pop-up still with a nifty animation, and the time axis used to display content also designed concise friendly, intuitive without losing charm. More interesting is the way Path shows time label for each event: when you sliding in time axis, the right of the screen will appear a tiny pop-up label, on it not only marked the specific time dates of the event, and a virtual clock its pointer will turn up and down with the sliding.

But the real key question Path need to answer is that how much the public demand for "private social"? how to perfect combine the concept of opposition exist of private and social? Morin have apparently have a set of his own ideas. Morin earlier once worked for Facebook, had witnessed Facebook users inflicted many doubts and attack in privacy, I am afraid that is why Path to want to do "private social".

From the current user group quantity and the application of its outstanding performance, Path is now follow the path established himself, but Path at present still facing a very great trouble. In most people's eyes Path just realize a cool application interface, and the function of Facebook time axis subsets, stubbornly said is only good a travel records program at most.

What is the direction of Path in the future? It is not clear, Facebook also seems to not temporarily recall its best people, but Google once wanted to buy Path with 100 million plus $25 million financial performance, and eventually refused by Morin.
