Moves
Social media has always been about connecting people to people. Here at Moves, we believe in connecting people to communities. And through communities, creating more meaningful connections with a common interest. Moves provides a new way to interact communities. Users take pictures and videos through the app. Then submit it to a community stream. The community then votes on the submission. Depending on the popularity, it stays or leaves the stream. As a result, Moves provides a stream of content that is 100% community curated and always relevant.
