About

I Was There

Features
Read full description

I Was There is a new take on social networking. It offers users event driven posts where they can share experiences with other users, posting pictures, videos, and text based stories about events in their lives. Threads for specific types of experiences allow you to connect with others who were there. Connect the experience, experience the connection. Blips are events. Blip threads about shared experiences such as concerts, sporting events, festivals, or any other community occasion. Anyone can create a Blip for any type of event, and anyone can upload their media and narratives in the form of Echoes. Cairns are memorials. Cairn threads to connect around the loss of a loved one. Anyone can create a Cairn to honor someone they have lost, or even to remember their pet, and anyone can upload media and narratives to share stories and memories. Monuments are achievements. Monument threads celebrate accomplishments and wins, from buying a first home to graduation to getting a promotion. These Milestones can either be a community announcement or individually proclaimed. Landmarks are destinations. Landmark threads revolve around global locations, either by category or specific point on the map. Want to know where Glowing Lagoons exist? Check the thread. Been to a Black Sand Beach? Share to the thread! Or, join or create a thread for any place. Pebbles are all about you. They are individual experiences not connected to other users except through our natural desire to share. Toss a Pebble and see if it makes a splash! I Was There: housing memories across nations and generations. โ€” Subscription โ€” I Was There is free to download and all users can view, create, and contribute to Blips and Cairns.
