SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- OnPik, a new mobile app and social networking community, announced availability in public beta on Android in the Google Play Store and at www.onpik.com. In its first release, OnPik allows consumers to view, create, share and communicate about Tweets embossed on photos.
OnPik delivers additional context, creativity, and personalization to Tweets, fostering increased viral reach and messaging persistence. See a funny Tweet from Jimmy Fallon - put it on a selfie and text it to friends! Love singer Katie Perry – emboss her Tweet on a photo and share it with your followers! Vote, comment on and communicate with others on OnPik and share to Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest!
OnPik’s photo sharing technology uniquely integrates into social network messaging streams, allowing consumers to search for and utilize existing social media content. OnPik is free and requires neither registration nor a Twitter account to use.
“OnPik is unique in two respects”, says OnPik CEO Chris Munnelly. “First, it provides Tweets with enhanced context and personalization; second, by packaging Tweets as photos, there are opportunities for broader viral sharing across multiple platforms.”
Just as Imgur and Whisper have created vibrant communities, in part by popularizing messages on photographs, OnPik takes this to the next level by unleashing the power of Twitter into photo format. OnPik is ideal for both active and casual Twitter users and those not yet on Twitter. While early in its rollout, OnPik believes it will help boost the appeal of Twitter among the more visually oriented Snapchat generation, some of whom have characterized OnPik as a “photo Twitter reader”. OnPik has horizontal market appeal and the potential to bring added value to the sports, entertainment, political and comedy realm.
