The entrepreneurial boom in mobile internet is becoming increasingly internationalized, and "China-made" has been a global siege, but rarely involved in the social arena. I wonder if you still have an impression on the C2 of the April 2012 online. In less than 5 months, it has been TechCrunch, Technode, Techinasia and other foreign technology media coverage, is considered China's Internet 2012 years one of the few innovative products. Six months later, the start-up team won millions of dollars in seed money. By December, a new Civo release, which had won Apple's official endorsement, was listed in the App Store's "Product Recommendation" section. Civo is the relocation and departure of the C2, online within 90 days of access to 70 countries from the world 360,000 users, and then selected TNW "The most noteworthy 11 Chinese start-up companies": http://thenextweb.com/asia/2013/01/03/11- chinese-startups-to-look-out-for-in-2013/#comments "Let the user through an application on the phone, can see the world through the eyes of others, feel the Wonderful life elsewhere." "This is Civo's product philosophy, which is currently available for free download in the Apple app stores, and is being developed by the Android version." iphone version download address: The use of Https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cbeyond-embrace-unexpected/id556538488?ls=1&mt=8Civo is very simple, After downloading to open the application, touch the screen to take pictures, take pictures of buildings, people and landscapes in your life, and then click Upload, and the system will match a life-swapping object for you in a global audience based on the principle of random and maximum distance-you may live in Beijing, Shanghai, or Hong Kong, each day with work performance, home loans, Old-age insurance and many other pressures, but can also be in the afternoon tea time to take out the phone, by Civo with people in a small European town to meet and share life fragments; in Taobao, Brush micro Bo Zheng feel bored, you can see through the civo of a backpacker in Niagara Falls half of the original life; When you are complaining about the injustice of life, Career setbacks, but through Civo found a family in Kenya is a positive and optimistic life. Civo shows the possibilities of life in front of your eyes. "Civo's intelligent algorithm will match the different cultural backgrounds, lifestyles and characteristics of users around the world, and the design of the system will stimulate users to constantly initiate user matching and send new photos." Founder and CEO Shu Yu said. But she stressed that Civo is not a simple photo-delivery product. It's a big roulette wheel that can help users find out that they've never met in their own social circles before.People. Shu Yu that the ordinary life we have in our eyes may be both precious and enlightening in the eyes of others, and that people are keen to see movies, biographies and novels because human nature wants to see the life of others, or even to choose another life. Civo allows you to share your life images with users around the globe, engage in visual conversations, Exchange life clips of others, and fully understand the diversity of the world. Civo is the continuation and sublimation of C2, the user's enthusiasm has confirmed the market demand for this application. "A middle-aged woman living near Stanford University in the United States shared thousands of images, became the most active user of C2, and sent e-mails to suggest product improvements and promotions," Shu Yu said. She also revealed that the number of Civo users has more than 360,000, of which 25% are international users, the United States, Europe, South America, the majority of users. After the upgraded Civo makes the social relationship more active and interesting, you can focus on multiple users and increase their points and grades through activity to gain the right to focus on more friends and more wonderful Life clips of others. We believe that "the exchange of life will make the world a better place". If path provides you with 150 of acquaintances with high quality real-life picture sharing, then Civo is creating encounters between you and like-minded strangers to show you a more attractive and fascinating spiritual world. Civo founder Shu Yu graduated from Stanford Business School and was a director of strategic development for Renren (Nyse:renn), responsible for forming, incubating Renren's career social networking website (jingwei.com), and forming a joint venture with Japanese wedding services listed Companies (zexy.com), planning and the formation of China's largest tourism community windmill (fengche.com) and other business, the Internet user behavior habits, product development trajectory and business development strategy has a profound understanding. Shu Yu Dictation: The Innovation of social networks is not the innovation of media, but the innovation of social relationships. Today's SNS evolution is far from over. At present, a variety of SNS products to create a homogeneous network of acquaintances-users passively receive a large number of repetitive information, and lost the strange world of curiosity and longing. I hope people in SNS are more than just focusing on people they could have met in real life. Friends, family, professionals ... These are somewhat similar to themselves, their life experience for themselves, not rich and diverse. But in fact, I think, SNS should help users to find their real interest in people and content. TechCrunch called us "Social Discovery". I think this definition is very accurate. Civo provide an equal entrance, let people go to meet, separate, Wong Kar-wai with the film "a Master" to explain "every encounter in the world, are separation", the real world is so full of changes may be the Internet, but also shouldIs full of surprises-like myself 10 years ago, I thought I could look at my life, but everything happened unexpectedly, and it made me feel that life was supposed to be so wonderful. These ideas are reflected in the product, not just the interactive design, but even the whole set of features and scenes. • We do not use the follow mechanism, but with two-way closed relationship, everyone meet is an encounter-encounter with the "Maximum difference" principle, is to provide a special life experience not seen before. • We do not provide a home feed, but in human units, each person's story is a separate line-full screen, picture, field, real-time-to the greatest extent reflect the "real" rather than the United States. • We are very convergent in design and interaction-try to hide the design and the intention of the product, leave the main body to the user, reduce the Dazzle skill. I have always believed that entrepreneurship is a person ego the final mapping, Civo is actually my life experience reflection, as no home, I hope the experience of life to maximize, life is always elsewhere. So Civo is a product that allows people to maximize their life experience with minimal cost. It is not a Google Earth or a collection of beautiful maps, but a "person" as a unit, with real people's eyes/perspective, emotion/identity story. "The story is the soul of the data," This is the theme of my previous speech in 798 Art District, quoting a Ted fellow: Stories Are ethically data with a walk.
