A review of the technology premise and it's various connectivity to other social media platforms GLOBALLY in up to 70 languages makes it an all encompassing social media product and e-commerce tool.

Yappn's new multichannel consumer platform for Web, portable and mobile devices, Fotoyapp, which allows users to instantly connect photos and images to almost any social content in almost any language has begun its development program for key industry influencers and celebrities. Yappn is meeting with agencies, studios and management firms to introduce Fotoyapp as part of their global social outreach programs.
Fotoyapp builds on the idea that "a picture is worth a thousand words" by revolutionizing social engagement, allowing images and content to be linked to each other and shared instantly, in almost any language. Fotoyapp creates the ability to share beyond the image.
With Fotoyappn, a user simply takes an image, from a camera, tablet, computer or others, and uploads it to Fotoyapp along with keywords that describe the image. Fotoyapp automatically adds the user's current social media accounts like Twitter, Facebook and Sina Weibo, and crawls the Web for related social media posts using the selected keywords. The result is a stand-alone page where images are socially and visually enabled with all types of related content that automatically defaults to the viewer's language, regardless of what language the social content was posted in. Fotoyapp pairs any image with practically any social content, and connects relevant curated ad and commerce opportunities to those images, creating new forms of revenue.
Fotoyapp allows users to share socially empowered images through any platform (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, QZone, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Tencent, Sina Weibo, Renren and Yappn Chat), e-mail, device or app, and rewards the viewer with a completely rich experience not found anywhere else, creating people-powered pics.
