Knocking is a better, faster way to communicate with your social world. It is direct smartphone to smartphone visual communication. Where you once got a call, or an e-mail, or a text or pix message, now you get a knock. In fact you hear a real knock on your smartphone.

When you answer you see pics on your friends or families phones anytime, anywhere, instantly. It is truly the fastest and most intriguing way to share pics. Knocking is instant visual messaging.

What’s important about knocking is that it’s truly live. For the first time, everyone can experience what our friends, family, team or co-workers are doing, as it’s happening.

The difference is our proprietary breakthrough technology. Until now the standard method for streaming sending pics has been “up, over and down”. In other words you’ve had to compress large amounts of data, upload them to a desktop and/or server, then download them on the other side of the transaction. All this takes time and large amounts of data space. Our technology turns that storage network into a simple relay, making it possible to instantly receive pics. It also makes it possible to send vastly larger amounts of data in one transaction….dozens of pics! No space, no waste.

Even more surprising, knocking technology allows owners of older Apple iPhone models (2G, 3G), even iPod Touch to receive whole pic albums! Yes, even without a camera.

And this is all just the beginning. The knocking live experience will soon be growing to include new features and platforms. Imagine a knocking broadcast to all your friends at once, or sharing an event live with your entire family, no matter where they are. Stay tuned.
