Fotobabble: Add Audio to Your Pics

fotobabble audio photoWe've recently come across an app that literally brings its users "talking pictures."



Essentially, Fotobabble attaches an audio caption to any image you can upload. It's a cute, fun way to share and narrate photos with friends, and could even be useful for certain kinds of online businesses - for example, photographers who wanted to explain more information about a particular shot or online retailers who wanted to give potential customers details about a product. Can Fotobabble accomplish these tasks better with audio than conventional text-based captions do now? Read on and tell us what you think.

Here's our example. It took just a few seconds to create.





Currently, users can choose to share their creations across a wide variety of social networks or email; however, autosharing is not built in. The app is available as a web app for PC/Mac/etc. and as an iPhone app.



We do wish that Fotobabble would let users audio-caption pics from Facebook, Flickr photo streams or elsewhere on the Web. Ensuring ownership would be easy enough, as well, through Flickr's API or Facebook Connect.While we're on that subject, account creation should be possible through Facebook Connect or Twitter OAuth. Ideally, we'd also want to be able to create slide shows and sets or groups of pics.



What do you think: Can you see yourself using Fotobabble? If so, how would you use it? Let us know what you think in the comments.
