Pip.Io – Social Operating System

October 28th, 2009 — 5:11pm | Author : Anangga Pratama

Pipio is a social operating system that aims to give people the ability to share and communicate in real-time. You can search what other people are communicating about in real-time based on contextual, geographical, and chronological relevance. As an operating system, Pipio allow full functionality of third party web apps within the Pipio ecosystem.

I. Landing Page

Pipio - Landing Page

What’s Good :

  • Lovely Design!
  • Fast to load

What’s Bad :

  • Making me spent 15 minutes thinking what’s the minus point for the landing page, which is none.
II. Features

Pip.io - Features

What’s Good :

  • Amazing integration with Facebook, you can reply to status update, creating a status update, view images, all in one page.
  • Integration with Twitter
  • Youtube search and watch directly from the dashboard
  • Feed Reader integration
  • NetFlix Integration
  • Discussion Room
  • Global updates (Your friend updates) with map

What’s Bad :

  • Thanks to Pip.Io, I don’t think I’m going to check my Facebook page that often anymore
  • The Twitter section lacks characters counter
  • Youtube section doesn’t use any log-in mechanism, resulting you won’t be able to comment to any videos.
  • Sometimes it took so long to load the Feed Reader or Facebook wall
  • Twitter status update delay in Pip.Io for a few seconds, but this one is minor :)
  • Transparent PNG support for the profile picture with black background

Would be Better If :

  • Add an ability to have photo albums in sync with Facebook
  • Google Search (I can already see Google logo in there)
  • Email client feature

Minor wish from me :

  • Clipping tools for Bookmarking purpose or just simply taking a note from sources in Internet.
III. Verdict

Pipio, ladies and gentlemen, is the killer tool for your daily social networking management. If they added an Email client feature, I will bet that this web application is going to be the next legend in a no time.

The drawback ? Currently invite only, but worry not, Anggackt will soon have an Invitation Giveaway for Pipio.
