DailyBooth WTF

Ok so here I go again with another rant (I just can't help myself) I came across DailyBooth on a tech-blog as they just raised $6 million USD. Can someone explain this service to me, as far as I can see you take pictures of yourself looking like a drug addict then stick them on the internet?

Seriously you take pictures of yourself when you've just woken up and post messages like this 'off for a shower now' Who Fu$%#ing cares.

12 year old girls posting instant snapshots of themselves looking like hockers. Now I can see this appealing to a certain demographic but... not one you want to encourage really.

6 million dam! I'm off to shoot myself in the head as I'm obviously way to old to understand how the world works anymore.

offtotakeadump.com I like it mate. Makes perfect sense.

I'm going to see if the domain name is free, before someone snaps up this valuable idea you've come up with and invests a couple of million in it. But first I'm off to take a ....

Never even heard of DailyBooth til now. But it's a brilliant idea, appeal to the lonely and the attention whores and offer virtually no service except hosting their images and it's just $$$. What's sad is that I noticed many of the images are of girls trying so hard to look "sexy", not women, girls!

Btw that live feed they have on the homepage, some porn just rolled across my screen so yeah hurray for that crap. :s

never heard of it until now as well.
well that's time i wont get back, but it seems to be the trend these days for little girls to slut themselves up and boys to drug themselves up...
I don't think we can do a thing about it when people aren't allowed attention unless they do stuff like that and anyone who doesn't is called boring... at least that what i gather from some of the comments to the photos




that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"
