First off, I think we need a more interesting way of compiling photos-especially focusing on trips-so this is a very interesting idea.
Two things:
1. I feel like collaborative album creation is one of the most compelling features you offer yet it is premium only. Would all collaborators need premium accounts or just the one setting up the shared album? Regardless, this is a very important feature which allows people that go on a life-changing trip together to share their collective memories. I want to be able to see the great photos my friend took in Venice after my iPhone died. I was there when he took them so they are as much a part of my memory as they are his and this means they deserve to be part of "our storify"
I think collaboration could be the key feature of the entire site.
2. Beaten to death already but you must change the name. You cannot just add two letters in front of a popular site name and claim it as your own. Also, I don't feel "mystorify" tells me much about what your site does. You can do better or find someone else to help.
These two (rather important) issues aside I really like the idea and am excited to see where it goes.
Yes, that is exactly our point with the collaborative album creation.
1. The issue is related to the way how the photos come to us. If it is via free account where we don't allow direct upload to our app, it gets a bit complicated with the collaboration. So our current intention is to allow collaboration only for premium accounts. However, we have to think a bit more about the prices and the target audience. We welcome new ides.
