Vyu - Mobile App To Share Like Real-Life Launched On App Store
"Users can share freely ... without leaving a trace of their private life on the Internet," says Vyu founder.

From Chitra Rakesh:
Vyu Labs Inc., a Silicon Valley-based startup has launched Vyu, a free iPhone app, to share messages, photos, videos, audio and location with one or many friends. When users stops sharing, content is immediately deleted from friend devices. User content is stored only on sender’s mobile device for 24 hours to share with friends again who become available later.

Popular social networks use asynchronous “posting” technology that must store user content on their servers. Users have no choice but to accept their ever-changing privacy policies, be unwillingly prone to experimentation and get exposed to hackers.
Vyu’s patent-pending secure social router technology manages friend connections like a social network, while forwarding user content like an IP router. Vyu’s dynamic media mixing servers deliver low-latency, real-time media sharing experience based on or user preference, content choice, data bandwidth and friend availability. The technology enables the user to have complete control over his content through synchronous, streaming infrastructure.

With Vyu, no privacy settings are required. There’s no need to set timers. No content is ever stored for experiments. No ads are mixed with your friends’ content. No eavesdropping by hackers.
“We’re excited to bring back good old fashioned, face-to-face conversations to online social sharing,” said Srini Dharmaji, founder of Vyu Labs, Inc. “Just like our real world where we take privacy for granted, users can share freely on Vyu without leaving a trace of their private life on the Internet.”
With growing concerns around security and privacy, Vyu is the answer to secure social media sharing.
