Graphita is a Flex app which allows you to add graphics to your uploaded photos to create custom compositions. I came across it via a post on TechCrunch which led me to the homepage.
It seems the number apps which allow you to customize, add, or modify raw media like video, pictures, etc. are really starting to bubble to the surface. Flex definitely helps these apps pull it off.
Glide is a Flex app built by Transmedia and is described as “The first complete online operating system” on the Glide website. It looks to be an ambitious project and there’s a lot going on inside this app. There’s the ability to store and organize photos, music, videos, documents and bookmarks. You can also perform “network” tasks like sharing a calendar, sharing files, email and chat. There’s also the ability to create websites, presentations, edit photos, and create a blog.
There’s a lot of similar features to Wallop, but things are layed out in a much more structured way. There’s also a lot more “syncing” of information. Not only with other Glide users, but with your computer and cell phone as well.
I only played around with this app for a few minutes to get an initial feel and I’m sure there’s more that it offers, or doesn’t. It was worth a look and I’ll be tracking it’s progress as it moves through beta.
