What’s the point in writing things out when you can be sending videos instead? That’s the point the ones who’ve created this new service are trying to make. And you know, I’m inclined to believe that many are going to listen. After all, it’s not as if you had to own a thousand-dollar camera just to get a clip together nowadays. Even humble mobile phones can shoot above-average videos. So, the release of a service like Keek makes a lot of sense.
Keek is a social networking site that lets you tell the world how you’re feeling using videos. Instead of just writing a short update that goes “On the beach watching a red sky. Wish you were here!”, you can shot a small video showing the sky, and then a heart you’ve drawn on the sand with the name of your missed one inside. I think nobody would question the emotional impact this can have when pitched against a tweet, IE, a simple message where characters are at a premium.
The videos you can share on this site must not be longer than 36 seconds, and they can be shot using webcams, iPhones and Android phones. They can be shared with a minimum of fuss, as after having logged in to the site you can have a “keek” shared with all of your contacts in little less than a minute.
Keek is quite similar to Tout, although it has a far more developed social side to it – on Keek, users can follow each other as if they were on Twitter And all the more popular clips of the day are found on the homepage, just like YouTube highlights the most popular videos of the past 24 hours.
