We are a young independent company based in London. i-Sho has been three years in the making starting with an idea conceived by one of the founders.
The current software is the early Beta Test release and is the manifestation of a modest amount of seed capital and a considerable amount of intellectual capital generously contributed over the last two years.
The software is a web enabled application that organises digital files of any type into a time ordered display. Files can be stored and found easily like this and they can be made accessible to anyone using our central Hub.
We don’t believe everyone of you wants to ‘Blog’ to the world or ‘Share’ your pictures with millions or have your ‘Profile’ viewed by zillions.
However, we do believe most of you want to share thoughts with close friends, swop pictures with your families and organise your increasingly digital world. Who knows you may disagree with us and decide to build a worldwide community and using i-Sho you still can.
We also believe everyone would rather not have to think about filenames and folders and hierarchies and…..and we know, you probably don't want to figure out what servers do, or Peer to Peers look at, or how Bit Torrents flow.
That’s why we built i-Sho….. for people who simply want to organise files so they can find a snapshot or a letter, wherever it is, and share it with friends, family and colleagues.
…..and our vision?
Well that’s simple.
We envisage a world where everything is organised by When not Where. A world where Category has been replaced by Relationships and where Networks have become Communities. Our vision?.... just a simpler view of life.
The market for user generated content is changing. Now we are all recorders of life... as it happens. From mobile phones to cameras and other digital devices.
I-sho creates communities of like minded people who want to collect and share their digital lives easily. Our communities can be small or large. They can be mum and her children, the sailing club or the local builder. They can be hobbyists and sportsmen, grandmas and chairmen.
We believe the software will be particularly attractive to Schools and Universities and to companies large or small where graphics and customer interaction play a pivotal role in the success of the business.
