Dave Morin, 2010. The pretty app that proved pretty is not a network effect.

## Why it lasted
- A beautiful private social network for 50 friends. Taste without a graph.

## Near deaths
- The address book upload scandal. Then Instagram. Then money.

## What would finish it
- A small graph cannot pay a large production. Kakao bought the remains. The app went away.
