It took me a few minutes to orient myself in the app but after I did it made a lot of sense. As I add friends I can really see the see myself spending a lot of time in this app. I've created a few simple stories that were quick and easy to make. These stories really impressed my non-iphone friends. I've shown them other apps I've downloaded before but this one was fun because they would crowd around my phone to see the different picture stories from people. Comments on pictures...YES! No more nerdy messages while I'm out having a good time.

Whrrl is revolutionizing the way i log and keep tract of all my experiences. I love taking random pictures so it's a great tool to organize my photos. It's amazing how i can take pictures, post them to whrrl and get instant feedback from my friends. I can get an immediate answer to things like which outfit i should buy while i'm out shopping. When i go out with my friends, it's even better because all the photos your friends take are combined into one experience, you never have to wait for someone to email you pictures again!

Tried a bunch of the location apps like Loopt and Brightkite. This whrrl app seems pretty cool. I really like the simple privacy settings and stories.

cool app. there have been a number of location and social apps on the iphone, but this is the first that goes beyond discovery of places and where your friends are to creating a "story" about a place, a time with friends, a funny incident somewhere, etc.

This app has entered my top 5 favorites! For those who love the idea of creating stories, and capturing great events this is your solution. I always find myself thinking that I will create the scrapbook or photo album “when I have time.” Oddly enough, that time never comes and I am just stuck with a lot of empty photo albums and supplies. This Whrrl v2.0 allows you to create those memorable experiences as they happen. You can capture the times, dates, people, photos, quotes, and location in real time – creating an instant online scrapbook for you to share with family and friends, or just keep as your own private memorabilia. If you are a parent then this product is made for you! Being myself a mom, this app gives me the opportunity to capture all the adorable moments with my son. No more telling myself – “I must always remember this” or “I have to write about this when I get home” only to be followed up with me completely forgetting. I can capture these moment immediately and have them forever!

Such a cool concept! Social networking is all about the story. Perfect!

Living far away from home, I find it more and more difficult to share with my friends what is going on in my daily life. This app is a great way to share my experiences with them almost as if they were with me. The best stories posted are the ones with multiple people with this app who are involved in the same event. But that doesn't mean all of your friends need iphones to join in the fun. I like that I can also share with my friends on Facebook. It's easy for me to reach out to them and for my friends to make their comments to me.

Blogging is so much work, and much as I love using status and tweets, it's sometimes not quite enough. I like how this makes a bundle of photos and captions, and heckling comments all together, and puts that out there for friends to see.

wow...i'm so impressed with this app. i love using it to take pictures of my baby daughter, tell stories about her, and share with my friends on facebook and twitter. it's so easy and fun to use! this just *might* become my #1 iphone app in short order.

I thought Whrrl v2.0 would be just another location based social networking app like Loopt or Brightkite. After giving it a try and sending an update to my network on Twitter, I realized it's very different. Easy to use and a great way to keep up with friends far away and close by. I love being able to "see the story" of what my friends are doing and comment on it, live. Can't wait to get all of my friends on it!

It was easy to start "whrrling" straight away. I was surprised to be able to use the app without needing to get all my friends to join up first. It was pretty easy to change my status on the networks I use already and I could adjust my sharing level without much work. Your online friends can apparently click on the status link and leave comments on your album...no-one has done that for me yet. I checked out the Whrrl website .. cool to see the "stories" I just made.

I understand why there is so much buzz around storytelling. It's like my friends are right there with me. It's really simple and quick to share whrrl stories too. I’ve been posting all my stories to Twitter and I’ve already got a lot more followers because of it. If you want to share more than a status update you should try this.

I got a few friends into Whrrl and started taking pictures. It takes your pictures and puts them on the map. Makes it much more fun (and easy) than tweeting.

Whrrl is more than just uploading pictures to a photo album. It's telling stories. Your friends can join one story so everyone can upload their pictures and comments to the same place. No more bugging people to get the pictures a month later.

I really like Whrrl. It is great to see where my friends have been and the places they like. I have discovered many new restaurants and bars through this. It is great.

Whrrl has a unique user interface, not the standard tab design. Interesting first run, there are glowing UI elements to lead you through getting started. I started a "friends" story and picked the Starbucks I was at from the list (LBS can be magical) took a photo and made an "update" - text updates show up like silent movie cards in their photo viewer UI - closed the tab and there was my picture on the map! I cannot wait to have some stories with friends too.

Rather than just location or status updates, or just pictures, Whrrl pulls everything together into one cohesive story unit that is really easy to create and publish out to my friends on Twitter. This is a great way to share my life with my friends, and it's also awesome to see their stories this way...so cool.

This is great! It's super fast to grab a picture, write a caption and blast it out to Twitter. Really slick looking, too. I love the pull down tabs and full screen mode.

Great to be able to share my experiences with friends and family! Love that it interfaces easily with facebook! Get it NOW!

Whenever my wife and our mutual friend Cassy go out I love capturing the event with Whrrl. Its easy, fast and responsive. What's even more fun is showing them the story view the next day and pointing out all the funny things they said and did whilst drinking. The location finding is good and if it can't find where you are you can add a place.

But its still pretty cool just viewing other people's stories and being able to participate in them when i'm out. I can then upload pictures from my camera when I get home on the their web site and share the photos with my friends then. Its nice that its so tightly integrated with Facebook and Twitter, makes it so easy to share your stories!

Whrrl helps me create beautiful stories with lots of photos. I have the power to set permissions to share my story. My friends can view and comment on my story.I always feel connected to my friends. Awesome!

Now that I have used the app a bunch, I can't believe how cool the idea of organizing everything as stories is. I especially love that when two of us are together, we can post photos and updates to the same story. And when I see the page views count on one of my stories start to go up and people start commenting, it's so fun -- it just makes me want to post even more.

This is a perfect compliment to how I use my iPhone. Its fun to create my story on the fly and catch up on what my buddies are doing. Then we get to "hear about it" from our Twitter network that isn't with us in real time and they have fun keeping in touch with us. The notifications are great because I get to see when people comment on something I'm doing. I'm always in touch with my scene. It's great.

Love the new app. Fun and easy to use. My new addiction!!!

A real good interface & nice way to hang out with friends

I have used location-based apps before, and I never really enjoyed them because beyond saying my location, that was the end of the story. Not anymore. Now that I've tried Whrrl, I'm loving the ability to share photos and updates with my friends and family- and not having to organize anything- Whrrl does all the work! It's cool that my friends and family can also see my stories and comment on them, even if they are not there. There's no other app like Whrrl out there, and I'm telling everyone I know about it.

As soon as I fired up this app, my eyes light up. Wow, this is a beautifully designed app, everything looks very slick, very, dare I say, Appley. Not only does it look good, but feels very intuitive to use as well. In less than 5 minutes of exploring, I'm up and running and sharing stories. As an example of how intuitive the app is, they have this "shake for feedback" feature. It is exactly what it sounds like, when you're frustrated with the app or something, just shake it and boom, you can submit whatever you're frustated about.

This is a fantastic app and sharing my stories on Facebook is a blast! Makes me feel super popular. Check out my view hits baby!

So different (better) from everything else I've tried on the iPhone. It's such a great way for me to share my good times. My friends and I have had a riot using the app and creating stories and messing with each other.

I never realized how much I've missed a tool that lets you tell real-time stories with your friends! It is VERY well designed, makes it super easy to post photos and updates, and enables real-time collaboration with virtually your entire friends network! Finally, a social-networking app that utilizes everything the iPhone has to offer!

Very intuitive, creative and entertaining! When real estate is limited on the iPhone, Pelago was clever with the layout and interface design. Who doesn’t love to share stories?! Whrrl is a great way to connect with people via a touch of a finger. When we’re so busy with our daily lives, I often lose sight of engaging friends, acquaintances and co-workers. Whrrl does that for me. It gives me a glimpse into what others are doing and what they’re passionate about. It’s also a convenient way of letting me know that I might be two doors down from someone who is also taking a coffee break or enjoying a glass of wine – why not meet up? I find that there’s never a dull moment.

I love using Whrrl to capture kids events. My husband gets to see what the kids and I are up to during the day, and my friends can see if somewhere is worth going to before they drag their own kids there. The app is easy to use and has a pleasing-to-the-eye interface. I moved Whrrl to my home page because I use it so often!

Don't know how long it took for the research but wow, the interface is nice. Intuitive to use and all so web 2.0ish, I like it.

with this slick app, I can just start typing away my updates, what I'm doing and snapping pictures and they all get nicely organized online and in the iphone. All I have to do is let my friends and family know my URL or even better, get them hooked on the app as well and they can see what I'm doing all the time, when I want to of course :) And you can control all that through the privacy settings on the app and on the website.

Wow, much improved interface, easy to use and intuitive, but first must get something off my chest.
