Umoja is decidedly anti-social

You’re not here to share with your friends. You don’t want to worry about your boss looking over your digital shoulder. This is the space for your private life with your partner.

Umoja focuses on sharing all the personal moments in your journey with your partner. These moments are sometimes silly, sometimes sad; they might be look miniscule to someone else, but to you they are the most cherished.

Your friends are tired of hearing about your cat. Your partner cherishes every minute of it. That’s what makes them special.

Unfortunately I did not have the time or experience to build a true mobile app to support this, and web-mobile hybrid technologies were not good enough at the time, so I was never able to enlist my family in using it.

I still believe there is a need for such an application. For people who do not want to use Facebook, it’s difficult to consistently share photos and updates with the appropriate family members (or friends).
