Background

edit

Streamzoo was launched in February 2011 by Phonezoo Communications, Inc., a company founded by Ram Ramkumar and Manish Vaidya, and funded by venture capitalist Tim Draper of DFJ Ventures, Inc.[2] In September 2011, American tech blogger Robert Scoble wrote a tweet opining that "These guys have a better camera much better than Instagram".[3] Streamzoo launched v2.0 of the product in late 2011. Streamzoo became the first cross-platform (iOS, Android & web) based photo sharing social network to offer the ability to collect badges as rewards for contributing photos to specific "streams".

Streamzoo shut down, with all services stopping on March 21, 2014.
